Einführung in eingebettete Systeme
Content
Basic introduction to technologies, functions and design of embedded systems: Typical requirements, examples of product and production automation, introduction to microcontrollers, introduction to Logic Control with PLCs, device technology, and according tools.
The control part of the former lecture „Introduction to Embedded Systems“ can be found in the new lecture Dynamic Systems for Computer Scientists now.

Exercise course
- (in English or German)
- Conditions for getting a certificate (Übungsschein): participation in the exercises on a regular basis followed by an exam at the end of the semester.
- During the first half of the exercises, students will work with the ATMEL ATmega16 AVR microcontroller (8bit RISC).
- In the second half, students will learn about PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers).
Microcontroller part
The software we are using is Freeware! Since the Atmel Studio also offers a simulator (running in simulator mode as soon as no device is connected) you can experiment with it at home. You need WINAVR and the AVR studio 4. A local copy of the WIN AVR Studio used in the lab course can be found here. Slides with a detailed step by step description of the design flow using WINAVR along with the AVR Studio can be found here (501kB). A short overview can be found here (10kB). More information can be found on atmel.com and in the according sections of Falk Salewski's Link List.
