Catalog Description
 Hardware and software design of microprocessor-
based digital systems. Basic concepts of
microprocessor components and their fundamental
machine instructions as related to their functional
performance in digital systems. The logical
characteristics of the devices are considered along
with the architectures and software efficiencies of
component families. Both 16 and 32 bit machines
are treated. Weekly laboratory exercises in
programming microprocessors and a team design
project are required.

What This Means to You
 You get a chance to learn what you need to know
to select and apply microcontrollers to applications
of your own choosing
 Specific tools you will be using
C cross-compilers
 Debuggers
 Simulators
 Logic Analyzers
12
Next Steps
 Reprise the MC6811 knowledge
 Do things in C that you formerly did using assembler
 Host input/output
 Interrupts
 Hardware interfacing
 etc.
 Follow up action items required of you

 Make a list of things you need to know about a new
microcontroller to be able to use it as well as you
can the MC6811
13
Class Requirements
 Professional Development III
 You must be registered for PD III (ENGR-4010)
with MPSD to get credit needed for graduation.
 MPSD is 3 credits, PD III is 1 credit.
 Writing Center
 MPSD is a writing intensive course. You are
expected to write well organized reports and will
be graded on style.
 Use the Writing Center resources to improve
your interim and project reports.
14
Lab Policies
 Lab experiment work (other than project) must be
done in teams of only two students.
 Attendance will be taken and will count toward your
performance grade.
 Unfairto partner when you don’t show up.
 Students with missing partners may team up for
experiments.
 To get the highest grade on a lab exercise,
something unique beyond the required tasks must
be accomplished and demonstrated.
 Projects may have teams of 3 to 5 students,
depending on the size of the project.
15
16
Special Projects - 2003
 Part of a MDL (Multidisciplinary Design Lab)
Project
 Automobile Enhancements & Others
 Using eye tracking & computer vision
 Various Sponsors
 Project to continue as Independent Senior Design
Project through next semester
 More details will follow in later weeks
