The assessment of the course is based on a standard 0-100 point scale. Students may receive:

• up to 10 points for independent work on two problems given in the exercise,
• up to 40 points for three tests during the semester (15, 15 and 10 points),
• up to 50 points for the semester project.

For both the semester projects and the assignments from the exercises, the evaluation is mainly based on meeting the functional requirements and the level of workmanship. Attendance at the tutorials is compulsory, and attendance is checked at the tutorials.

The course provides an intensive introduction to the C programming language and algorithmization in a resource-constrained environment. It also provides an overview of microcontroller (MCU) architecture and peripheral functions. Students will also gain hands-on experience developing applications for specific microcontrollers in the PIC18 family.

Graduates of the course will gain a theoretical understanding of single-chip computer applications, focusing on architecture, algorithmization methods, and best practices. The acquired skills will enable the student to independently solve basic mechatronic tasks, including problem analysis, design of a suitable solution and its implementation.
