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 ...

Imagine you’re stuck on a desert island, hundreds of miles away from the nearest person, and you finally have time to finish that project you’re working on. You have a single microcontroller, but ...

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 ...

There are currently around 600 programming languages to choose from, so picking the one that’s right for you can be pretty difficult. But if you’re looking for a language that’s incredibly popular, ...

Arduino is a microcontroller designed for real-time hardware control with very low power use. Raspberry Pi is a full computer that runs operating systems and handles complex tasks. Arduino excels at ...

This Design Idea is for low-end, eight-pin, flash-memory, 8-bit microcontrollers, such as the MC68HC908QT4A from Freescale, but it would apply to any 8-bit microcontrollers that use the ADC feature.

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 ...
