ECE 6742 - DSP in Embedded Systems

(4 credits)

This course emphasizes design of embedded systems using Digital Signal Processing microprocessors and special DSP FPGA chips. Topics covered include DSP microprocessor architecture, advanced instructions, addressing modes, interrupt, system design considerations, interfacing serial and parallel I/O, memory structure, arithmetic manipulations, software development tools, multiple DSP processor system design, and embedded system applications. Applications include automotive, multimedia, and wireless communications. Performance measurement, benchmarking and DSP system simulation, testing and debugging. The students will do a set of lab projects and a large embedded system design project. Credit cannot be received for more than one of CSE 6741, ECE 6741 or ECE 6742.

Prerequisite(s): ECE 5721
