ENGIN4402 Digital and Embedded Systems
This course introduces students to the digital and embedded systems and enhances their investigative, design and problem solving skills. The course discusses digital logic design, programmable logic devices, embedded system and covers the basic architecture of microcontrollers along with their applications in embedded systems. The embedded system takes into account both the hardware and software component in finding the solution to a problem. This presents significant challenges as appropriate skills are required to strike proper balance between the hardware and software components. Students will gain practical experience of interfacing computer with physical engineering systems. They will also gain skills in designing small systems to meet various design requirements. The course applies digital and embedded systems design to industrial applications, such as machine measurement and control, and, domestic applications including examples from both white goods and home entertainment.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $1,164
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $1,164
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
