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 ...

[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 ...

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 ...

Many of us know the basic Blink Arduino sketch, or have coded similar routines on other microcontrollers. Flashing an LED on and off—it doesn’t get much simpler than that. But how big should a blink ...

You've probably heard about Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Both show up in maker forums, both get recommended for electronics projects, and both have passionate communities. So which one do you actually ...

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 ...

Microchip Technology expands its Arm Cortex‑M0+ microcontroller offering with the launch of the PIC32CM PL10 family.

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 ...
