This course is built for Altera SoC FPGA designers who want to develop deterministic, production grade real time systems using Zephyr RTOS on Altera SoC FPGA platforms. The course focuses on real world Zephyr practices for HPS + FPGA systems: board/BSP bring up, Zephyr device tree and driver model, interrupt and scheduling determinism, DMA and cache/coherency correctness, and robust integration of custom FPGA IP via HPS↔FPGA bridges. Rather than teaching RTOS basics, the course concentrates on what typically blocks successful deployments: priority inversion, ISR overload, race conditions, timing jitter, non-coherent DMA corruption, device tree mismatches, and integration failures across HPS (software) and FPGA fabric (hardware). The end goal is a repeatable methodology to ship an RTOS based SoC FPGA product with measurable real time performance.
