Learn to design, build, program, and test microcontroller-based projects with the C programming language Key Features * The ultimate project-based guide to building real-world embedded applications in C programming * Discover how to apply microcontroller boards in real life to create interesting IoT projects * Create innovative solutions to help improve the lives of people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic Book Description We live in a world surrounded by electronic devices, and microcontrollers are the brains of these devices. Microcontroller programming is an essential skill in the era of Internet of Things (IoT), and this book helps you to learn this skill with projects for designing and developing embedded applications with microcontroller boards. The book is filled with microcontroller programming C language constructs. You'll discover how to use the Blue Pill (containing a type of STM32 microcontroller) and Curiosity Nano (containing a type of PIC microcontroller) boards for executing your projects as PIC is a beginner-level board and STM-32 is an ARM-cortex-based board. As you advance, you'll get to grips with the fundamentals of digital electronics and microcontroller board programming. The book uses simple examples such as measuring humidity and temperature from an environment to help you gain hands-on project experience. You'll also solidify your knowledge by creating IoT projects by applying more complex sensors. Finally, you'll find out how to plan for a microcontroller-based project and troubleshoot it. By the end of this microcontroller book, you'll have developed a firm foundation in electronics and practical PIC and STM32 microcontroller programming and interfacing, adding valuable skills to your professional portfolio. What you will learn * Get to grips with the basics of digital and analog electronics * Gain a clear understanding of STM32 and PIC microcontrollers and microcontroller boards * Design, build, program, and test a microcontroller-based system * Understand the importance and applications of STM32 and PIC microcontrollers * Discover how to connect sensors to microcontroller boards * Find out how to obtain sensor data via coding * Apply microcontroller boards in real life and practical projects Who This Book Is For The book is for students, hobbyists, geeks, and engineers alike who want to explore the world of embedded systems and microcontroller programming. Beginners as well as more experienced users of digital electronics and microcontrollers will find this book useful. Basic knowledge of digital circuits and C programming is desirable but not necessary.
