Embedded Systems Cellular Firmware Development(GSM)

Communicate with your embedded devices using cellular technology : Phone Call, SMS, M2M etc.

This course teaches you how to develop drivers and libraries for adding cellular functionality to your embedded device.

This course uses the STM32 microcontroller and the A6 GSM/GPRS chip. The A6 is a low-cost quad band GSM/GPRS chip equipped with 850/900/1800/1900MHz worldwide communication band. If you do not understand what a band means, do not worry, by the end of this course you will understand this and much more.
The drivers developed in this course will work on almost all cellular chips out there, this is because most of them use the UART for communication.
