Course detail

Digital Electronics

FEKT-MPA-DIEAcad. year: 2022/2023

The course is focused on the issue of microprocessor technology and its use in embedded systems. Students will expand their knowledge of electronics and digital technology. The course continues by programming microcontrollers in C. In this way, students will gain practical experience with the function of partial parts of embedded systems and deepen their knowledge of programming practical algorithms. The course also includes an introduction to programming embedded devices for machine learning.
