Designing with e2 studio and Synergy Software Package (SSP)
This class will demonstrate how easy it is to create RTOS based designs using high level Frameworks within SSP. Frameworks provide a hardware independent development path that 'fills in' many of the low level details automatically.

The Target Kit and Resources
This class will describe the target board that can be optionally used as a hands-on extension to the course. The freely downloadable software can also be used to also follow along with the design examples, but just can't be executed on actual hardware.

Example Designs in Detail
This class will select example designs from those suggested by students to solidify key techniques covered in previous classes. Students with actually hardware will be able to download the designs to the actual board while students with the software will be able to explore the code generated automatically by the software tools.
