There will be NO permitted materials on the exam. 

The exams from 2010,2011 and 2012 have been made available under the folder Previous exams. 

Note: during the autumn semester of 2013 we have integrated the embedded system and RTOS part onto the FPGA platform using the uC/OS-II kernel from Micrum. The corresponding exam problems from previous exams may therefore not be fully representative. The general concepts (theory) are nevertheless similar as long they have been covered in the lectures.

All lab. assignments have to be submitted by latest November 29. This is an absolute deadline in order to not be withdrawn from the exam.

There will be a summary lecture on Tuesday Nov. 26 at 12:15.

No lecture on Monday Nov. 25.

Espen Tallaksen from Bitvis AS will be giving a guest lecture at the Department of Informatics (INF3420/4431) Wednesday November 6. 

The topics will be:

• Bugs and problems - Worst disasters
• Making a simple testbench - step-by-step
• Testbench demo

Location: OJD 3427, Seminar room C

Time: 9:15 - 12:00

You are all welcome to join.

Due to travelling there will be no lecture on Monday Oct. 14. The next lecture will therefore be on Tuesday Oct. 15 at 1215. 

Lab. assignment number 2 is now available: /studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS4220/h13/labs/lab2.pdf.

Lab 2. can be performed without the use of the DE2-70 board as it only involves VHDL design and simulation. The design in lab 2. will later be tested on hardware during lab. 3. 

During week 39 both Ketil and Chengxin will be absent due to travelling (conference). This unfortunately means that there will be no support during the lab. sessions. To compensate for this the due date for lab 2. has been postponed to 11/10. 

Due to travelling (conference) there will be no lectures in week 39. 

Due to travelling there will be no lecture on Monday Sept. 2. The next lecture will on Tuesday Sept. 3 @ 12:15, room ?394.

A tentative lecture plan is available at studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS4220/h13/lectureplana2013.pdf, and will be continuously updated.

The first lab exercise is now available: /studier/emner/matnat/fys/FYS4220/h13/labs/lab1.pdf

I have set up a doodle poll for you to indicate your availability for a suggested set of lab hours. The lab-exercises will be carried out in groups of 2. If you have already found a lab-partner please sign the doodle poll with both names in the same field. If you have not found a lab partner sign up with your name only. I will then try try to find a match.
