Department of Radio Electronics (UREL)

The graduate is able:
- describe different AVR microcontroller blocks including advanced functions
- create firmware in C language including AVR-GCC specialties
- discuss different types of displays for microcontroller applications
- discuss advantages and disadvantages of different busses for microcontrollers
- design connection of different microcontroller peripherals
- design and assemble own device with microcontroller including firmware

Attendant should be able to: - describe main microcontroller blocks and their function - design simple C program - design program for setup of basic peripherals, interrupt control and separate functions and function calls - analyze simple electronics circuits with passive parts and transistors and choose corresponding way of connecting to the microprocessor. The subject knowledge on the Bachelor's degree level is requested.
