Unleash the Power of Embedded Storage with FatFs and SD Card Integration with our comprehensive Embedded Files Systems and SD Card Drivers course.

This comprehensive course offers a unique and exciting opportunity to dive deep into the world of embedded file systems secure digital (SD) card storage. With a focus on the STM32 microcontroller, this course covers everything you need to know to master the implementation of file systems and secure digital (SD) card drivers.

The highlight of this course is the hands-on approach to implementing the popular FatFs file system on embedded devices. You will learn how to configure the FatFs system, how to perform disk and file I/O operations such as creating files, reading files, writing different types of data including sensor data to files, how to troubleshoot and debug file system issues and much more.

With the flexible online format, you can study at your own pace, from anywhere in the world. Plus, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can enroll with confidence.

Provides a comprehensive overview of storage media used in embedded systems. The section begins by defining what storage media is and how it is used in embedded systems. It then covers the different types of storage media available, including Secure Digital (SD) cards, EEPROMs, and FLASH memory, and provides a comparison of these different types of storage media. This section is a great starting point for anyone who wants to understand the fundamentals of storage media and how it is used in embedded systems.

Provides an in-depth look at Secure Digital (SD) cards and their use in embedded systems. It covers the technology behind SD cards, their driver architecture, and the APIs and functions used to read and write data to these cards. This section also includes a hands-on programming component where you will learn how to implement a bare-metal SD card driver, giving you a practical understanding of how to integrate this technology into your embedded systems projects.

Provides an overview of file systems and their importance in embedded systems. Also covers the basic concepts of file systems, including the definition of file systems, the types of file systems, and the requirements of file systems for embedded systems.

Focuses on the design and implementation of file systems in embedded systems. It covers the key design considerations that are specific to file systems in embedded devices, and how to optimize the performance of these file systems.

Covers the topic of file system allocation, which is a crucial aspect of file system design and implementation. Begins with an introduction to file system allocation, followed by a discussion of different file system allocation algorithms, including the pros and cons of each method. Then delves into the issue of file system fragmentation, which can impact performance, and the strategies for minimizing it.

This section of the course covers the usage of the FatFs file system. It starts by introducing the FatFs library and its purpose, followed by an overview of its key features and advantages. The section then covers FatFs configuration, including the options for Long File Name (LFN). The section concludes with a discussion on disk and file I/O, including the disk I/O interfaces and the different file system operations such as mount, open, read, write, and close. 

A little about me : Israel Ninsaw Gbati

This is my private channel. 

I have been writing embedded firmware for years, I have built embedded devices like consumer products and robotic arms.

 firmware development online till date

...including third year undergraduate university students in-person.

If you have taken any of my courses before you will know I start from the absolute basics, I do not assume that the student has any prior knowledge of the topic under discussion. You will also know that by the end of the course you understand the functions of every register used in developing the particular firmware or driver.

This method is the same for all of my published embedded systems courses.
