Developing Software for the Nios II Processor
(IEMB230)
16 Hours
Instructor-Led Course
Course Description
This course is targetted at Software Engineers or Developers. You will learn to develop and run embedded software for the Nios II processor in the Nios II IDE. 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. 7.1 and SOPC Builder design tools. This course utilizes the Nios II Development Kit 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 IDE, and after taking this course you should feel confident tackling your next embedded programming task for the Nios II processor.
