Embedded Systems

Embedded Systems are specialized computer systems designed to perform dedicated functions within larger electronic or mechanical systems. Coursera's Embedded Systems catalogue equips you with the knowledge and skills crucial for designing and implementing these complex systems. You'll learn about the hardware-software interface, digital signal processing, microcontrollers, and real-time operating systems. Additionally, you'll gain expertise in programming languages typically used in embedded systems such as C or Assembly, and understand how these systems are used in various fields including automotive electronics, telecommunication, medical equipment, and consumer electronics.
