DOEACC Courses on computer embedded systems and other electronic automation systems
Computer technology is a vastly and daily changing volatile subject and therefore the studies and resulting activities can be obsolete within a very short time span. That is why the society is continuously and regularly updating their courses and incorporating all new concepts and technologies that are being introduced in a global context. Education of embedded systems is yet another such attempt by the society in full filling their role in bringing the latest and up to date knowledge with regard to IT sector of the country and its people in general. The society makes all attempts to provide their students with latest technology available and equip them with up to date stud programs so that they can provide the global demand of information technology sector professional that is on a rising scale to date.
Embedded systems are defined as microprocessors or computer systems that are included within personalized hardware systems. Cellular phones, electronic items used in customer care units, mobile electronic medical equipment are manufactured using the theory of embedded systems. Micro chips that are used in these electronic items are programmed using the technology of embedded systems. Indiahas been in the forefront with other global countries in the marketing of this micro chips industry and at present there are over 130 companies engrossed in the business of chip designing in India. There is an immense talent and skill that is required to carry out such refined and complex designing of electronic hardware. In the country there is a vast untapped talent that is waiting to be brought in to attention with the correct amount of guidance and training that they require in order to augment their inherent talents. While Indiais show casing its competency to the world in the business of successful chip designing the anticipated revenue for the Government out of this sector is also expanding gradually. Therefore the society has made arrangements to provide the interested candidates with professional backing that they require in undertaking such complex and advanced tasks in this latest technological field.
IT professionals and engineers of the country have identified the potential in this niche market and therefore have added a significant level of contribution to the development and enhancement of this cutting edge technology. The country has managed to secure a considerable amount of this market by presenting their capabilities and professionalism to the world and have up to now over ten top level semi conduction operators design centers operating in India. Involvement of these international vendors has immensely helped the country’s growth in electronic design and automation sector.
Organizations have offered employment opportunities to Indians in the positions of developing integrated complex software systems, system programming of chips, field program gate arrays and other similar software development prospects. These organization involved in the art of designing computer integrated chips are continuously deploying their employees to undertake courses and programs to increase their qualifications and knowledge in this sector so that ultimately the organizations could reap the benefits of their enhanced professionalism and talents.
DOEACCcenter located in Calicuthas taken the initiative in introducing a course study system that benefits candidates who are interested in widening their knowledge in embedded systems and designing programs. This is Master of Technicians course that is implemented in collaboration with the Universityof Calicutand the course has received favorable response from the students to date. Time duration of this course is a period of six months inclusive of four semesters. Course fee per semester is Rs. 30,000. In addition to the main 24 month course, Calicutcenter also provides short term courses for students in the subject of embedded systems. Details of these short term courses are as follows:
The Calicutcenter courses
· Embedded systems and relevant designs Diploma course for a period of 6 months at a course fee of Rs. 46,000.
· Embedded systems and software course and RT Linux course for a period of 3 weeks at a course fee of Rs. 6,000.
· Course in embedded products designing for a period of 2 weeks at a course fee of Rs. 4,000.
· Very large scale integration and design diploma course for a period of 6 months at a course fee of Rs. 30,000.
In addition to the courses that are available at the Calicutcenter, DOEACC center in Imphal has established a fully equipped laboratory for the studies of embedded systems and VLSI designing. The center also has launched a certification course in embedded systems and VLSI designing with course duration of two months. The main elements that will be covered in the syllabus of this course are:
- CMOS Circuits, MOS transistor, designing of CMOS Chip, MOS Inverter, designing option and logic circuits
- VLSI Packaging
- MOS Processing Technology
- Digital logic circuits and components
- Programmable logic
- PAL, PLA, FPGA and CPLD
- programmable gate arrays
- VHDL, HDL
- CAD Tools
DOEACC centers in Jammu/Srinagar also have undertaken to conduct certificate courses in the embedded systems sector. The courses are on the designing concepts of 8051 and the designing concepts of AVR micro controller.
DOEACC center in Aurangabadhave signed an MOU between the center and C Dac to carry out collaboration work on the education and e-learning systems of embedded systems and have worked out a curriculum to introduce a Diploma in embedded systems designs. The contribution from DOEACC Aurangabad will be to provide the necessary laboratory components, to master mind the syllabus contents, initiate the faculty orientation and identification of other necessities pertaining to the diploma. In addition to this, the center also provides short term courses in the same subject.
· Course on VHDL studies aimed for the digital designers with a duration of one week at a cost of Rs. 2,500.
· Design course for analog chip foundations and circuit stimulation for a period of one week at a fee of Rs 4,000.
· VLSI designing certificate course for a period of six months at a fee of Rs. 30,000.
· Date converters and product development with electronic CPLD/FPGA course for a period of twelve weeks at a course fee of Rs. 15,000.
· Board analysis, design, layout course for a period of four weeks at a course fee of Rs. 8,000.
· The physical design and VLSI Backend course for a period of four weeks at a course fee of Rs. 8,000.
· Embedded systems and designing diploma course for a period of sixteen weeks at a course fee of Rs. 16,000.
Students could select and follow any of these courses according to their eligibility and preference.
DOEACC center in Gorakhpurhas undertaken to conduct three courses on embedded systems, which are advanced diploma course for learning embedded systems for a period of six months, summer training program for learning of embedded systems for a period of one month and the training in embedded systems for a short term ranging from one week to four weeks.
