Description

This course is aimed at graduates of the Zephyr basic training or participants who have already taken their first steps with the Zephyr project and would like to deepen the knowledge they have already acquired. The Advanced course focuses on typical issues during the product life cycle of an embedded device. Starting with the development of initial prototypes, the incremental expansion of existing functionality and the implementation of firmware updates through to the mitigation of supply chain risks, participants will be shown how Zephyr can be optimally used for their own projects.

At the end of the 2-day course, participants will have set up their own downstream project and learned important organizational principles for an expandable and maintenance-friendly software design, including the creation of technical documentation. With the help of the possibilities offered by Zephyr, the test-driven design of typical features of an embedded application and their integration was practiced intensively.

Agenda

  • The Zephyr RTOS API
  • Best practices for downstream product development
  • Zephyr design patterns: subsystems and drivers
  • The Zephyr emulator framework and test driven development with Zephyr
  • The MCUBoot bootloader and firmware updates

Typical questions we answer:

  • How do the Zephyr APIs support the design of real-time capable applications?
  • What strategies are there for successfully developing products with Zephyr?
  • How can you use the many strengths of Zephyr profitably in your own projects?
  • Which design patterns and idioms are a prerequisite for sustainable and maintainable embedded SW?
  • How do you create and maintain high-quality technical documentation?

Our training approach

From the needs analysis to the awarding of certificates, we offer customized training courses, flexibly designed and carried out according to your requirements.

If you are interested in in-house training, we will start by identifying your needs and discussing your objectives. This discussion forms the basis for an initial offer.

As soon as the framework data has been clarified, our trainers start adapting the training content. Many of our training courses have a modular structure and offer the opportunity to design the agenda flexibly. Training courses that prepare for certifications, on the other hand, are less flexible. Here, however, you can set the content focus according to your wishes.

You will receive all relevant information in advance of the training. The training will then take place in the room of your choice and at the agreed time. Our trainers will adapt to your requirements.

After completing the training, all participants receive a certificate confirming their participation. You will also have the opportunity to give us feedback on the content and the course. We are always happy to receive praise and suggestions for improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What prior knowledge is helpful?
Participants should have a basic familiarity with Zephyr and have already created their first small applications. Ideally, they should have already completed our "Zephyr Basics" course.
What technical requirements are necessary?
Participants need their own laptop (Windows or Linux) with admin rights and at least one free USB port. Windows users are strongly recommended to use a virtual machine (VMWare, VirtualBox, no WSL) with Linux (e.g. Ubuntu 24.04).
What are the practical exercises carried out with?
The practical exercises are initially carried out using the participants' own laptops. For hardware-related programming, participants are given a board for the duration of the training. This is a readily available development kit that can be easily obtained from a retailer after the training if you are interested.
