Student Review
"The overall sub-sectioning is well done, logically ordered, and has sufficiently small chunks to spread over time. Enjoyed being able to go from topic to topic, return to answer questions in my mind that came up later, good simulated interaction with students with markers, and thinking like a student."

It starts with a high-level view of the architecture, including the background of Thunderbolt to provide the big-picture context and then drills down into the details for each part of the design, providing a thorough understanding of the hardware and software protocols.
