M1: Module Descriptor Template: Module Title Indicative Syllabus

This module focuses on embedded system design using ARM Cortex-M3 microcontrollers like the STM32. The module will introduce students to ARM architecture, the Cortex-M3 core structure, developing software for STM32 microcontrollers using Keil, designing minimum systems with STM32, and peripheral development. Students will also learn about embedded operating systems like μC/OS-II and its core structures and task management capabilities. The module will be delivered over 10 weeks through 2-hour lectures each week totaling 38 hours, along with 16 hours of lab work. Students will be assessed through lab tests/reports, assignments, attendance, and a final exam.
