What will I learn?
This course offers a practical overview of CPU organisation, pipelines, register files, and ALU design, progressing to caches, memory hierarchy, buses, and memory-mapped I/O. Learners will cover interrupts, DMA, latency management, low-power techniques, real-world trade-offs, timing budgets, and documentation to confidently design efficient embedded systems.
