This course is designed for engineers and advanced hobbyists who want to move beyond simple microcontrollers to complex system-on-chip (SoC) and FPGA-based designs.
The curriculum centers on the "ZettBrett," a custom board featuring an AMD (Xilinx) Zynq SoC. This course is designed for engineers and advanced
Layer stack-up design, controlled impedance, and signal integrity (SI) basics. Power (PDN) generating Gerber files
Design for Manufacturing (DFM), generating Gerber files, and the ordering process. This course is designed for engineers and advanced
The course is divided into 12 primary lessons that mirror a professional hardware development lifecycle: Focus Area Key Topics Covered System & Schematics
FPGA/SoC configuration and DDR3 memory routing with fly-by topology and length matching. Peripherals
System-level architecture, part selection, and creating future-proof schematic symbols. PCB Fundamentals
