VHDL System Design Laboratory

What it is about

You learn the construction, design, and implementation of System-on-Chip (SoC)-based embedded systems. In the end you can design a sample SoC with microcontroller, bus, and peripherals, implement a encryption module in a hardware description language, bind it as a peripheral to a bus, and create the necessary embedded software for the exam.

What you will be able to do

• Analysis and evaluation of SoC and embedded-system concepts
• Design and creation of SoCs with complex system components
• Implementation of modules in a hardware description language (VHDL)
• Integration of peripherals to buses and development of corresponding interfaces
• Application of an FPGA design flow for embedded systems
• Development and deployment of embedded software for verification

What the module consists of

• LaborStep-by-step completion of laboratory tasks for implementing and integrating SoC components
• SelbststudiumIndependent work on the tasks according to own schedule, possible in institute rooms or at home

Teaching method

• Laboraufgaben mit zunehmender Komplexitätsolidify consolidated knowledge through practical sub-tasks
• Individuelle Betreuung durch eine(n) AdvisorSupport with essential difficulties
• Vorlesungs- und EinführungsmaterialIntroduction to concepts and tools, provision of slides and lab materials
