[updated 11.03.2010]
Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

E501. Biomedical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2011 , semester 5, mandatory course, course inactive since 28.11.2013
E501 Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2005 , semester 5, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
45 class hours (= 33.75 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 120 hours (equivalent to 4 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 86.25 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
E105 Digital Electronics
E303 Electronics I

Learning outcomes:
After completing this module, the student will have a basic understanding of the functional and operating principles of microprocessors and microcontrollers and, in particular, of how hardware and software components interact. Students will be in a position to understand a microcontroller system and to operate the system to accomplish a specified task. The module puts particular emphasis on teaching practically relevant aspects of microprocessor systems.
