EE 493 - Advanced Microprocessors2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This course provides students the understanding and programming techniques for advanced microprocessors/controllers. Topics discussed include CPU organization, instruction set formats, addressing modes, real-time operating systems, task control blocks, message passing, semaphores, mailboxes, memory and I/O interfacing, resource and memory management. (prereq: EE 2920 )
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Describe the relative advantages and disadvantages of n-address machines
- Describe the relative advantages and disadvantages of CISC and RISC machines
- Design and implement multiple-interrupt driven programs interfacing with sophisticated
