Electronic Systems

This course is a direct continuation of the Electronics and Computer Science courses from semesters 5 & 6. It relies on skills acquired in digital electronics, in algorithms and programming, in microcontrollers, and to a somewhat lesser extent, skills in analogue electronics.

The course is composed of a set of units dealing with a project for designing a digital system, with the aim of continuing and consolidating the acquisition of skills and knowledge in tools and fundamental methodologies in the electronics field.

On completion of the course students will be capable of:

• Analysing micro-processor based architecture
• Designing an integrated or programmed digital system of average complexity
• Carrying out a simple analysis of the safety of an on-board system
  

The Electronic Systems course is composed of three units:

• Processor Architecture  (21 h, J-B Rigaud)
• Digital system design project  (27 h, O.Potin)
• Security of on-board systems  (15 h, N. El Mrabet)

The Electronics Systems course is associated with:

• the Major cursus in Embedded Systems and Microelectronics Design,
• the technological issues relating to BioMedical Devices, Electronics & Energy and Mobility & Security
• the Science course of semester 7 (connections with the courses on Multi-domain systems projects and Electromagnetic Coupling)

It also provides useful skills in computer architecture and memory control for the Computer Science Major.
