While microcontroller specs may be the first thing engineers look at when deciding on a device for their system, the ecosystem that surrounds the microcontroller is certainly very important, and ...

In our last session we looked at the basic structure and operation of a microcontroller (MCU). Now let’s look at some of the hardware (peripheral circuitry) required to support the microprocessor. In ...

I am in the process of updating my book "Electronics Explained," published by Newnes/Elsevier. The book is essentially a basic electronics text for those learning about electronics for the first time.

Looking to boost your skills in electronics, programming and engineering to increase your employment opportunities? This PIC Microcontroller Engineering Projects Bundle could be the perfect solution ...

One of the nicest amenities of interpreted programming languages is that you can test out the code that you’re developing in a shell, one line at a time, and see the results instantly. No matter how ...

As computer systems become more and more ubiquitous in everyday items, the workings of those items will require some sort of digital controlling. Controllers that once handled large mechanical systems ...

While DSPs are the primary controllers in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with power-factor correction (PFC), ac generation and battery management, microcontrollers serve secondary functions for ...
