This course is designed for hardware engineers designing systems based around the ARM Cortex-R5 processor core. Including an introduction to the ARM product range and supporting IP, the course covers the ARM core range, programmer's model, instruction set architecture and AMBA on-chip bus architecture. The Cortex-R5 debug architecture is also covered. The course includes a number of worked examples to reinforce the lecture material.
