In this article, I'll be explaining the basics of how microcontrollers work, physically and virtually. First off, microcontrollers are no simple thing, so don't be discouraged if you find it ...

One of the first frustrating situations a beginning microcontroller programmer will come across is the issue of debouncing switches. Microcontrollers are faster than switches, and the switch has yet ...

There are many reasons to build your own Arduino circuit on a protoboard or a custom-designed printed circuit board. At the heart of the Arduino platform is an AVR microcontroller, in usual way you ...

The flip-flop, aka latch, can also be understood as Bistable Multivibrator as two stable states. Generally, these latch ...

The world of microcontrollers is set to experience a significant shift with the upcoming release of MicroPython v1.23, which will introduce support for Asymmetric Multiprocessing (AMP) on multi-core ...

The Arduino 101 equipped with Intel's Curie module integrates a 6-axis gyro/accelerometer and Bluetooth, which sets it apart from the rest of the Arduino line up. What the heck is an Arduino? Simply ...

There’s one big problem with the Arduino development environment, also known as an IDE: There’s no network hookup to directly share and browse code you’re writing for these little microcontrollers. It ...

Since you lacked the USB interface in your own Arduino board, it becomes necessary to use a homemade/ready-made USB to Serial Converter Module as an efficient and economical solution. Inexpensive and ...
