Assignment to Modules

Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks This course provides basics, current trends and challenges in the development of digital system-on-chip (SoC). We start with the main steps for building arbitrary CMOS-based combinatorial logic and sequential digital data processing and control circuitry (e.g. Finite State Machines) and explaining their role and significance in the scope of key system-on-chip components: microprocessors, memories and interconnects. The microarchitectural structure and building blocks of processor elements (RISC cores), on-/off-chip memory technology (SRAM, DRAM, Flash), bus and point-to-point interconnect standards (Processor Local Bus, Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture, FIFO) as well as the design of communications specific arithmetic blocks (adder, multipliers, shift and comparators) will be introduced and analyzed. Finally, we will introduce main implementation methods for SoCs, such as FPGA, standard cell and full custom design, and discuss methods for low power design, which is vital for the development of SoCs in embedded systems.
