As a result, this project is set up as a how-to for others looking to dive further into the world of microcontrollers that don’t have the same hand-holding setup as the Arduino. To take care of the ...

Microchip Technology Inc., and Source Electronics Corp., have developed an automated high-volume programming service for customers utilizing Microchip's PIC10F family of microcontrollers in 6-pin, SOT ...

We could all use a new hobby in 2021, especially after tiring of our old ones over the past year. If you're hoping to expand your interests and happen to have some free time on your hands at home due ...

We’ve been living a life of luxury, writing our microcontroller code in a text editor and using — of all things — a compiler to turn it into something the chip can use. [Dan Amlund Thomsen] shows us a ...

Many PIC processors require 5-V power while being programmed, yet battery-powered systems may contain low-voltage devices that will be damaged at voltages above their maximum voltage ratings. In ...

USB interfaces are everywhere today, with low cost flash memory drives and all kinds of USB peripherals readily available. But these are very much focused on the PC market. Attempt to make use of ...

Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) describes how to easily link a USB flash drive to a simple, low cost microcontroller in an embedded design ...

The objectives of assembling this robot include following a line, going over the ramp and memorizing a track. To achieve the objectives of this line-following robot, a firmware was written for it and ...
