Arm-Cortex-M-Efficient-System-Design-and-Development

Summary
Arm Cortex-M training courses are designed to help engineers working on new or existing Cortex-M
system designs. Whether you’re working on design, verification, validation, or developing software
for a Cortex-M system, the course can be configured according to your team’s needs.

Courses include fundamental topics to enable a solid platform of understanding. The rest of the
course then builds on from this with optional topics and can be tailored appropriately. Some key
topics are delivered via pre course on-demand video.

Learning activities such as interactive workbooks, walkthrough examples and quizzes are
incorporated into the training to help bring the learning to life.

A pre course call with the engineer delivering the training will help you discuss your team’s
individual training requirements.

At the end of the course delegates will be able to:


• Describe different Cortex-M processors features and their use.
• Explain the fundamentals of the M-profile architecture.
• Identify and solve key Cortex-M system design issues.
• Make appropriate system design choices.
• Decide on the best configuration options for their system.
• Develop standardised and efficient software for Cortex-M processor.
• Debug issues on Cortex-M processors.
