Tweet Microcontrollers – Part 7: The I²C Interface, Interrupts, WD & Timers It’s time to meet again with our little friend: CPU Monkey – the “manager” of all processes into our Virtual machine – The Microcontroller. Today, the CPU Monkey will communicate using I²C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) interface and will be Interrupted … It will be … Read more
Tweet Microcontrollers – Part 6: The UART Interface It’s time to meet again with our little friend: CPU Monkey – the “manager” of all processes into our Virtual machine – The Microcontroller. Today, the CPU Monkey will communicate… using the UART interface. It will be a Heavy work … , or just a fun … Read more
Tweet Microcontrollers – Part 5 : The Analog Comparator It’s time to meet again with our little friend: CPU Monkey – the “manager” of all processes into our virtual Microcontroller. Today CPU Monkey will use the Analog Comparator. It will be a Heavy work … Example: The CPU Monkey will measure the analog signals – … Read more
Tweet It’s time to meet again with our little friend: CPU Monkey – the “manager” of all processes into our virtual Microcontroller. Today the CPU Monkey will measures the analog signals, digitizing them by using the built-in ADC engine, and next to write the results into MCU’s structured memory array. Sounds sophisticated? No, it … Read more
Tweet In the Previous Part 2, we started discussing to microcontroller’s memory arrays – these fundamentally necessary and important modules. For clearness in a description, we decided to use the CPU Monkey association, not only as a joke. We learned the Ports types, Clocking circuitry – taking the rhythm of work on the low-level instruction set (remember Schiffer of … Read more
Tweet Let’s continue with the microcontrollers – these smart “centipedes” all around us. In Every Smart TV, in every modern kitchen device, even in every car there are more than one. In Part 1 we described in few words, what of a kind can be configured the I/O ports. We continue our “trip” … Read more
Tweet Microcontrollers – Part 1: Introduction Microcontrollers – there are tons of these small but smart electronic devices around us. They are in almost every modern kitchen device, in every car, in the entertainment children’s toys, in the modern cafe machine, in the smart battery chargers, etc. Some people are familiar with the thematic, but … Read more
