Embedded Systems Development with ARM Mbed

Embedded systems power the modern world, from smart home devices to industrial sensors. Understanding how to program these Systems on Chip (SoCs) is the key to unlocking hardware-software integration. This text-based course guides you through the core concepts of ARM Mbed, a powerful platform that simplifies microcontroller programming. You will progress from understanding basic hardware architecture to writing efficient, event-driven C++ code for real-world devices. What you'll learn: - Understand fundamental System on Chip (SoC) concepts and microcontroller architecture. - Configure digital and analog inputs/outputs to interact with physical sensors and actuators. - Implement event-driven programming using Mbed OS event queues and thread management. - Apply power management strategies to optimize devices for low-power operation. - Write clean, modular C++ code utilizing modern Mbed APIs and libraries. - Debug and test embedded applications using structured software-based techniques. The course begins with foundational definitions of SoC architecture and the Mbed environment before moving into hands-on code walkthroughs for peripheral control, multitasking, and power optimization. This course is designed for absolute beginners to embedded systems, electronics hobbyists, and software developers looking to transition into hardware programming with no prior microcontroller experience required.
