F1B401A: Conception of digital systems

Presentation

The rapid evolution of CMOS components towards nanotechnologies means it is possible to integrate a complex system within an SOC (System On Chip) integrated circuit. At the same time, the diversity and complexity of "real time" applications dedicated to embarked systems requires the use of a mixed software/material design flow (Codesign) based on languages such as SystemC and architecture synthesis methodologies. This option covers architectures, tools and methodologies for the integration of complex systems.

Objectives

To gain awareness of system design
To be able to use a modelling environment for SystemC language
To master the description and synthesis of an application using an architectural synthesis tool
To understand how to use a system design flow for SoCs
To apprehend, understand and apply the right methods to reach the required result
To be aware of the architectural principles used in signal processing microprocessors and processors.
To choose the right circuit for the specific application
