[Sergey Lyubka] put together this epic guide for bare-metal microcontroller programming. While the general concepts should be applicable to most any microcontroller, [Sergey]s examples specifically ...

An increasing number of vendors offer 32-bit microcontrollers based on ARM® Cortex®-M processors, and at the same time, there are also new development environments introduced for these microcontroller ...

Got a PIC32 microcontroller and a healthy curiousity about the Rust programming language and its low-level capabilities, but unsure how to squash the two of them together with a minimum of hassle? If ...

Finding out where your microcontroller's firmware spends most of its time can be a tedious task when you use a conventional in-circuit emulator and breakpoint techniques. Other such tasks include ...

Debugging microcontrollers is both a technical and creative challenge, bridging code analysis with hardware checks. Whether working with Arduino boards, PICkit 3 programmers, or ESP32-powered projects ...

The PICkit 3 is a programmer and debugger for Microchip PIC microcontrollers, enabling developers to upload code, test, and debug hardware directly from a PC using MPLAB IDE. It supports in-circuit ...

In last week's installment, we showed how to get started with Csound. This week we take it to the next step by constructing a homemade MIDI controller circuit and use the new device to control Csound ...

Fig 1. Core memory used to be ubiquitous. Fig 2. Texas Instruments’ 16-bit MSP430FR57xx looks like most microcontrollers except it only has one memory block. Magnetic memory such as core memory used ...

Slimmed-down version of Python, rebuilt from the ground up, is designed to run fast and lean on microcontroller hardware The Python programming language’s flexibility and ease-of-use have made it ...

Because it's fairly ubiquitous and accessible, the Internet is a great way to provide code up-dates to customers. But it's an open medium, so it's subject to attacks or theft. By encrypting machine ...
