A Board and Projects for an FPGA/Microcontroller-Based Embedded Systems Lab

Published: 07 September 2020 Publication History

Abstract

Harvey Mudd College has developed a sixth-generation circuit board with an FPGA and microcontroller for an embedded systems laboratory course. Students begin by assembling and testing their circuit board, then complete a series of laboratory projects with the chips. The course concludes with an open-ended team-based design project.
