Few sharings of embedded systems training program participants

P. Suresh, Coimbatore.

I have completed the Level-1 Embedded course training in ANANDA CHAITANYA foundation. The Trainers and Coordinators are more friendly and we can learn more stuffs technically without any hesitation. We can clear all our doubts upto our understanding level. I have learnt how to read the datasheet properly, understand communication protocols and connect the micro controllers. The Training and Hands-on sessions improved my skills and confidence level. I am able to handle any micro-controller now. Many thanks to the organization.

Tamizharasi, Coimbatore.

Initially basics of Embedded Systems were taught like the importance of Clock, difference between micro controllers and microprocessors, timers, Oscillators, RAM, ROM, flash memory, boot loader, program counter and controller architecture etc.,.  At the end of every class, Tutor refreshed the basics of Digital electronics, Principles of communication systems and on basics of C programming. Each person were assigned with individual programs and alternate solutions like minimizing the coding instructions (using the OPCODES) were given for all the programs. With all these basic topics, the embedded systems learning was very helpful to me. I thank the Ananda Chaitanya Foundation for enhancing me the learning practice and made me to work on the projects individually.
