4 weeks to complete at 10 hours a week
Transform into a skilled embedded firmware engineer with this comprehensive program that bridges hardware understanding with production-ready software design.
Basic C programming knowledge; computer architecture concepts helpful
Starting with embedded systems fundamentals, you'll learn how microcontrollers work internally, explore real-time constraints, & master interrupt handling & state machines. Progress to advanced architectures where you'll implement abstraction layers, manage multithreading with RTOS, & optimize for power & memory constraints. Dive deep into Board Support Package development, learning to read hardware datasheets, interface with peripherals using Embedded C, & build layered BSP architectures. The program culminates with advanced BSP development where you'll create custom board support packages from scratch, including startup code, memory layout, & register-level configuration.
Coursera brings together a diverse network of subject matter experts who have demonstrated their expertise through professional industry experience or strong academic backgrounds. These instructors design and teach courses that make practical, career-relevant skills accessible to learners worldwide.
Whether developing for custom boards, optimizing real-time performance, or designing reusable drivers for cross-platform deployment, this program equips you with skills demanded by embedded systems employers. By completion, you'll confidently architect firmware that's not only functional but truly production-ready for complex embedded applications.
