TUTORIAL T1



Developing Real-Time Embedded Products - Part 1
Lecturer: Kim Fowler, Coolstream LLC & Johns Hopkins University, USA

Monday, 17 May 2004, 9:00AM-1:00PM



This tutorial will give an introduction to the issues and overall picture in designing real-time embedded systems.

General Introduction
This portion of the tutorial will provide the general principles used in design and development, illustrated with case studies and examples.
Topics include: systems engineering, documentation, human interface, packaging, grounding and shielding, circuit design, power, cooling, software, review and testing, production, procurement, maintenance, and disposal.

Noise and Shielding
This second portion of the tutorial will expand on the introductory material specifically in noise and shielding. It will help you understand electromagnetic noise and how to design circuits and shielding to avoid it.
The topics include: mechanisms of noise coupling, shielding, electrostatic discharge (ESD), general diagnostics, layout of signal traces, cables, and enclosures.

Tutorial T1 can be attended independently from tutorial T2.
