Workshops
Introduction:
Workshops truly reflect our credo of ‘fostering innovation’. By roping in stalwarts of the industry from various fields, we provide students with a unique opportunity to interact with them and gain exposure to cutting edge, high speed technology. Highly informative sessions on burgeoning technologies like VLSI, Embedded Systems, Wireless communications & Robotics by leading academicians serve as an eye-opener to budding technologists by enabling them to identify potential areas for their specialization.
1.Cypress Semiconductors: - 4th Mar, 2009
CyFi Low-Power RF Solution
The CyFi Low-Power RF solution is a highly reliable, easy-to-use 2.4-GHz answer to a wide range of wireless embedded control challenges. It enables designers to create wireless systems without making compromises to overcome the typical risks of unreliable performance, complex implementation, and high power consumption. By combining Cypress's PSoC programmable system-on-chip, a sophisticated yet lightweight network protocol stack, and a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) transceiver, the CyFi solution achieves levels of reliability, simplicity, and power-efficiency unmatched by other embedded wireless technologies.
Apart from Demo, there will also be a Hands-On experience to the interested participants.
2.Texas Instruments: - 4th Mar, 2009
Exploring ARM & DSP using TI OMAP3530 processor
The new OMAP™ platform is based on the market’s first broad offering of the ARM® Cortex™-A8 core to provide an unprecedented combination of laptop-like performance at handheld power levels in a single chip. With more than four times the processing power of today’s 300MHz ARM9 devices, the superscalar 600 MHz Cortex-A8 core is integrated into four new OMAP35x applications processors.
The workshop will give you the overview of OMAP3530 applications processor, Embedded Linux, Beagle Board and a decoded MPEG4 demo on Beagle Board
