| Objective : | The course objective is to give the student a coherent and structural understanding of the architecture and the function of a microprocessor system including interface to external devices. The student must be able to ·prepare programs for a microprocessor using relevant programming languages including assembly language. · use the interrupt system for hardware and software to interface external devices to the microprocessor system. · design and implement interfaces for external devices to the microprocessor using the address-, data- and control buses. · prepare algorithms in pseudo code and realize these into assembly and C or C++ languages. · use programmable logical devices (CPLD) for realizing digital electronic circuits, which can be used by the microprocessor system . · plan and carry out tests of software as well as hardware components in a microprocessor system. · work systematically and structured in connection with a project containing hardware- as well as software components. |
||
| Principal Content : | Microprocessor hardware and principles for connecting to memories and external devices. Application of programmable devices in a digital system.Assembly programming including 8088 architecture, segmentation, addressing methods, instruction set, interrupts and programming tools.Tools for project management for instance mile stones, action-item lists etc. | ||
| Teaching method : | The teaching is based upon a big project to be completed in groups. The project is a joint project involving DIG2A and OOP2A.The project is to be documented by a number of reports. | ||
| Required prequisites : | Documented knowledge similar to DIG1A and OOP1A | ||
| Recommended prerequisites : | DIG1A, OOP1A | ||
| Relations : | DIG2A is part of a course unit consisting of DIG2A and OOP2A. | ||
| Type of examination : | Oral examination based on assignments | ||
| External examiner : | Internal | ||
| Marking : | Scale of 13 | ||
| Remarks : | The project work is done in groups under the guidance of the supervisors. A group can propose that a member be excluded from the group if he or she repeatedly fails to observe agreements made by the group. The supervisor can deny admittance to the examination for a student if he or she does not make a significant contribution to the project work. Admission to the examination will depend upon the reports being delivered on time and completed satisfactorily. The oral examination is a joint examination together with the course OOP2A. Before the examination: A short presentation made by the whole group. The group members must coordinate their individual contributions to the presentation so that the most important parts of the project are covered and that the individual presentations are different and have a certain theoretical depth. After the presentation each student is examined individually. The supervisors and the examiner ask questions inspired by the presentation and the project report. The evaluation is based on the report, the oral presentation and the student"s contribution to the project work. The latter must be documented in the project management part of the report (for instance action-item list, milestones, project logbook). |
