Who is this course suitable for?
This program is ideal for students, electronics and computer science graduates, or professionals looking to transition into embedded systems, IoT, or firmware engineering roles.
Do I need prior programming knowledge to join?
No prior experience is required. The course begins with fundamental programming concepts in Embedded C before progressing to advanced modules like RTOS, IoT, and Embedded Linux.
What development tools will I learn to use?
You’ll gain hands-on experience with AVR Studio, STM32CubeIDE, GCC, and Git. These are industry-standard tools for developing, compiling, debugging, and version-controlling embedded software.
Which microcontrollers are covered in the course?
You’ll work with:
- AVR (ATmega328P) for foundational concepts
- STM32F4 (ARM Cortex-M4) for advanced bare-metal programming
- ESP32 for IoT and wireless firmware development
What topics are included in the AVR Microcontroller module?
You’ll learn register-level programming, GPIO and PWM control, interrupt handling, and communication protocols like UART, I2C, and SPI - all without relying on external libraries.
What is taught in the STM32F4 ARM Cortex-M4 module?
This module covers the Cortex-M4 architecture, debugging with JTAG/SWD, and manual register-level programming. You’ll also complete a data acquisition system project.
Will I learn Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS)?
Yes. You’ll explore the fundamentals of RTOS architecture, task creation, scheduling, semaphores, and inter-task communication, followed by a multitasking project implementation.
Does the course include IoT and wireless development?
Yes! You’ll use ESP32 to build Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) based applications, and learn secure IoT communication using MQTT and HTTP protocols.
Will I get exposure to Embedded Linux?
Absolutely. You’ll get introduced to shell scripting, build systems, cross-compilation, and basic kernel module programming - essential skills for modern embedded developers.
Are there advanced topics included?
Yes, advanced modules cover Edge AI integration and system-level performance optimization to help you stay ahead in the embedded technology landscape.
Does the course include real-world projects?
Definitely. You’ll work on Capstone Industry Projects such as:
