What will I learn?
This course provides a practical overview of CPU organisation, pipelines, register files, and ALU design, progressing to caches, memory hierarchy, buses, and memory-mapped I/O. You'll delve into interrupts, DMA, latency management, and power-saving techniques, along with real-world trade-offs, timing analysis, and documentation to confidently design efficient embedded systems.
