BSP Development Training

Industrial Embedded Software & Multi-MCU BSP Architecture Design Single architecture, single-button build regardless of MCU. Vendor-independent BSP approach.

  • 100% hands-on laboratory sessions (real hardware)
  • Vendor-independent, multi-MCU BSP architecture
  • (ST/TI/Microchip/Nuvoton…)
  • Debugging, logging, and industrial fault analysis (product-oriented approach)

The BSP Development Training is a hands-on and architecture-focused program designed for engineers who want to develop industrial-grade embedded software.

It covers vendor-independent BSP design, the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), and multi-MCU architectures on real hardware.

By the end of the training, you will reach a level where you can design a scalable infrastructure that maintains the same architecture across different MCU families.

This training is designed to break vendor-dependent development habits and to build sustainable BSP architectures.

With a single-architecture approach, it aims to produce scalable solutions across different MCUs.
