TUTORIAL T1



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

Monday, 16 May 2005, 9:00AM-12:30PM

Registration (in advance or at-door): $150



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

General Introduction
(Monday, May 16, 9:00 to 11:30 a.m.)
This portion of the morning 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
(Monday, May 16, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.)
This second portion of the tutorial expands on the introductory material from earlier in the day. 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.
