DAT175 Advanced Topics in Electronic System Design (TILDE), 7.5 credits
GENERAL INFORMATION:
F1. Individual work on a relevant research assignment.
The course organization depends on the selected course format. For a student that
follows a regular PhD student course (F3), no participation in the activities below
is required. For a student that intends to do a research assignment (F1) or a
literature study (F2), the following information applies:
The course spans study period 1 (SP1) and 2 (SP2), during which the student works in
an independent manner.
Prior to the start of the course, the student must 1) identify the course topic
and 2) find a Chalmers supervisor. The supervisor is expected to provide
guidance throughout the course; at the very minimum, this involves endorsing the
work plan and reading/commenting/grading the final report.
In the beginning of SP1, each student taking the course in SP1 is required to hand in,
to the examiner, a work plan that defines the scope and the goal of the
assignment/study. Similarly, in the beginning of SP2, each student taking the course
in SP2 is required to hand in, to the examiner, a work plan that defines the scope
and the goal of the assignment/study.
In the end of SP2 (or the beginning of SP3), the students present their work.

NEWS:
180822: TILDE participants must approach the instructor in the first study
week of the study quarter in question.
Students that are eligible for this course are enrolled in the MPEES master's
programme and have successfully completed the following courses: Introduction
to electronic system design (DAT093), Introduction to integrated circuit design
(MCC092), and Methods for electronic system design and verification (DAT110).
A maximum of 15 students are enrolled to this course.
One purpose of this course is to offer the student an opportunity to dig deeper
into a selected topic of advanced electronic system design, ranging from circuit
design to embedded software design. Another purpose is to give the student a
chance to learn the basic trades of research work, which is a skill that can
prove useful already during the coming master thesis work.
There are three different formats of this course:
F2. Individual work on literature study on a relevant topic.
F3. Activity in a regular PhD student course in a relevant area.
Due to the character of the course, we won't have any common core textbook.
