ECE 370 Microprocessor System Design

Fall

This course discusses more advanced concepts in microprocessor architecture, programming, and interfacing. Speculative and out-of-order design techniques and theory are presented, as are concepts of locality, data transfer, and communication. A low-level programming language is introduced as well as high-and low-level programming tasks. Interfacing issues between power circuits and microprocessors are introduced as well as techniques for data conversion. 2 lecture hours. 3 laboratory hours. Prerequisite: ECE 260.
