Course Description
This course is targeted at Software Engineers or Developers. You will learn to develop and run embedded software for the Nios® II processor in the Nios II Software Build Tools for Eclipse and with the Nios II Command Tools. You will also be exposed to a few hardware concepts including how a Nios II 32-bit microprocessor is configured and integrated into an Altera® FPGA using the Quartus® II software v. 9.1 and the SOPC Builder design tools. This course utilizes one of the Nios II Development Kits so that you can download, run, and debug your code in an Altera FPGA. You will participate in discussions about the features and capabilities of the Nios II Embedded Design Suite, and after taking this course you should feel confident tackling your next embedded programming project.At Course Completion
