Are you an Embedded Software Engineer, already familiar with C , looking to elevate your capabilities and build truly sophisticated real-time systems?
Do you find yourself hitting the limits of traditional C when managing complex embedded projects?
Are you seeking ways to write safer, more scalable, and maintainable RTOS applications without sacrificing performance or direct hardware control?
If you're ready to harness the full expressive power of modern C++ (C++17), combined with the real-time prowess of FreeRTOS, all while interfacing directly with STM32 hardware registers (No HAL!), then this course is meticulously designed for you.
This comprehensive, hands-on course goes far beyond simple C++ wrappers. We dive deep into robust memory management techniques, event-driven architectures, and efficient peripheral control – all tailored specifically for the demanding constraints of real-time embedded systems development on microcontrollers.
Embedded Expertise Unlocked
- Architect Scalable & Maintainable RTOS Systems: Design modular, reusable components using C++ classes and interfaces.
- Master Advanced C++ RTOS Integration: Implement type-safe task management, IPC (Queues, Semaphores), and synchronization primitives (Mutexes, LockGuards) that prevent common C API pitfalls.
- Implement Robust Memory Management: Go beyond the basic FreeRTOS heap. Create custom Memory Pools for deterministic allocation and overload new/delete for instrumented, thread-safe dynamic memory control.
- Design Advanced Event-Driven Systems: Build a type-safe, publish-subscribe event framework, integrate ISRs and timer events seamlessly, and manage asynchronous operations effectively.
- Control Hardware Directly & Efficiently with C++: Create reusable, type-safe C++ abstractions for peripherals like DMA, Hardware Timers, and ADC using Direct Register Access (DRA) – no opaque libraries needed.
- Write Safer, More Optimized Code: Understand C++ performance implications in RTOS, leverage RAII for resource safety, implement robust error handling, and apply best practices for real-time constraints.
- Boost Your Career: Gain highly sought-after skills in modern embedded C++ development, setting you apart in the competitive field of embedded systems engineering.
What You Will Master – Key Topics Covered:
- C++ Foundations for RTOS: Leveraging classes, RAII, templates, namespaces, const-correctness, lambdas, and C++17 features effectively under resource constraints.
- Object-Oriented RTOS Primitives: Building robust, type-safe C++ wrappers for Tasks, Queues, Semaphores, Mutexes, and Software Timers using static allocation. Implementing RAII LockGuard.
- Advanced Memory Management: Deep dive into stack vs. heap vs. static vs. pool allocation trade-offs. Implementing custom MemoryPool classes. Overloading global new/delete to interface with FreeRTOS heap and add instrumentation via a MemoryManager singleton.
- Task Design Patterns & Event Systems: Implementing Command, Observer, and State Machine patterns in C++. Building a type-safe, Pub/Sub EventDispatcher for decoupled communication between tasks, ISRs, and timers.
- Advanced Peripheral Abstraction (DRA): Creating professional C++ interfaces for Hardware Timers (Basic, PWM), DMA Controllers, and ADC (triggered by timers, using DMA). Managing interrupts and callbacks cleanly.
- Performance, Debugging & Error Handling: Analyzing C++ overhead, applying optimization techniques, robust error handling without exceptions.
This is not just theory
You'll apply everything you learn through intensive, practical labs on STM32.
All code is written using Direct Register Access (DRA) , giving you complete control and deep understanding of the hardware interaction, just like in demanding professional environments.
Stop wrestling with the limitations of C for complex RTOS projects.
