This course is the graduate expansion of the EN.520.448 Electronic Design Lab, which is an advanced laboratory course in which teams of students design, build, test and document application specific information processing microsystems. Semester long projects range from sensors/actuators, mixed signal electronics, embedded microcomputers, algorithms and robotics systems design. Demonstration and documentation of projects are important aspects of the evaluation process. For this graduate expansion, all projects will be based on recently published research from IEEE Transactions. The students will be required to fully research, analyze, implement and demonstrate their chosen topic. The emphasis will be on VLSI microsystems, although other topics will also be considered. Open to graduate students only.
