EECS 473: Advanced Embedded Systems

Labs

• Lab 1: Introduction to Arduino
  • GSI sign-off sheet
  • motor.txt
  • Python 3.6 serial example The python code in Part 6 of the lab is for a different version of Python than we have on the machines in lab. You can use this as a starting point for the lab machines.
  
  
• Lab 2: Wireless robots, writing LCD drivers and more!
  • GSI sign-off sheet
  
  
• Lab 3: Using a Real-time Operating System
  • GSI sign-off sheet
  
  
• Lab 4: An Introduction to Linux Device Drivers (F23)
  • GSI sign-off sheet
  • Linux image (1.6GBytes!)
  • partC.c
  • partD2.c
  • partE.c
  
  
• Lab 5 is done individually. You can do it using one of two tools: Altium Designeror KiCAD. Altium is a very expensive, very powerful, tool that has something of a larger learning curve. If you work at a company that does PCB design, it's likely you'll have access to Altium. If you work at a small company or one that rarely does PCB work, KiCAD is a more likely tool. Another option is Eagle, which was the hobbiest "gold standard" for years. But it it was bought and more-or-less killed. Lab 5 directory has all the needed files.
