Here is a hands-on embedded systems course that uses the Texas Instruments TM4C123 microcontroller kit. Supplementary information for this course can be found on the  University of Texas ECE website.

Here is a list of embedded systems courses taught by Dr. Jonathan W. Valvano of the University of Texas.

Here is the schematic for the Orbit Booster Pack.

Here is a link for an advanced TI series of tutorials and workshops.

Here is the temperature sensor for both the Stellaris and the Tiva boards.

FPGA AND VHDL DESIGN

Here is the url for the manual for the NEXYS2 board http://www.digilentinc.com/Data/Products/NEXYS2/Nexys2_rm.pdf

Here is the url for the free book http://www.digilent.ro/Data/Textbooks/Intro_Digital_Design-Digilent-VHDL_Online.pdf

Here is the url for a series of really great tutorials developed by Michigan Tech as part of their NSF ATE project. Their work is done with Altera and VHDL but, VHDL is VHDL. Look under Project Materials. http://www.tech.mtu.edu/nsfate/

Download the zip file for a Pong game from the Chu textbook. The UCF has been updated for the Nexys-2 board from Digilent.

These were developed by the late Dr. Scott Wills:

Here is a series of 160 podcasts covering everything from number systems and basic 7400-series logic ICs up through using VHDL to implement logic in FPGAs. They also contain several simulations using NI MultiSim and FPGA development software. They have been used to enhance the reading assignments in hybrid on-line Courses of Digital Electronics I and II. Feel free to use them as a supplement in your class or in your on-line course. You can view them at: http://www.youtube.com/user/billkleitz/
