Workshops by TI

The Grand Semiconductor Company comes to NSIT to take a series of two workshops. IEEE NSIT invites you to the same !

In cooperation with IEEE Student Chapter of NSIT and Texas Instruments India University Program

NSIT announces a two-day conference on
ARM-based Embedded Platforms from Texas Instruments
Venue: Netaji Subhash Institute of Technology, Delhi
Jan 29-30, 2012
Texas Instruments offers a broad portfolio of embedded processor platforms based on ARM processor cores which are known for low-power and high performance. In this conference, the participants will get an exposure to several platforms, such as Da Vinci, Sitara, Stellaris, and OMAP4, which are based on ARM processor cores.  Da Vinci is a processor platform with on-chip DSP and microprocessor cores and is intended for high-performance DSP, including video processing.  Sitara is a microprocessor intended for high-performance computing applications, including cloud computing. OMAP4 is intended for mobile computing applications.  Stellaris microcontrollers are intended for applications such as industrial automation, motor control, and robotics. This conference will provide hands-on exposure to TI’s Stellaris Microcontroller development platforms. Other than talks on Stellaris architecture, programming, and applications, the conference will also feature three hands-on workshops:
·         Workshop I on “Robotics Experiments using Stellaris EVALBOT” will be based on the robotics development kit LM3S9B92 from Texas Instruments
    • Workshop II on “Applications of Ethernet Connectivity and CAN Interface in Stellaris”based on Stellaris microcontroller – will be based on the LM3S8962 evaluation board with CAN + Ethernet
    • Workshop III on “Beagleboard and Embedded Linux Workshop” – will be based on Beagleboard-xM.
This event is intended for teachers and undergraduate & postgraduate engineering students from Indian institutions.  Prior registration is mandatory (please see registration instructions below). The participants will be able to attend any one of the three workshops.
