Learn the basics of microprocessors and microcontrollers, with Arduino boards, GPIO pin input/output, and programming in the Arduino IDE. Compare microprocessors and microcontrollers via room temperature monitoring examples.
Explore input and output operations on microcontrollers with a focus on the 8051, its pins, internal ROM and RAM, and how to interface sensors and displays in embedded systems.
Explore microcontroller categories by bit width—8, 16, 32, and 64 bits—and learn how processing capacity and speed guide data handling and interfacing for sensor data and image processing.
trace the origin of Arduino as an open source platform enabling fast prototyping with easy hardware and software, and map its board range for education, IoT, and makers.
Demonstrates the Arduino board as a microcontroller based platform, detailing digital pins 0–13, analog pins A0–A5 with in-built ADC, and serial communication, usb, and reset interfaces.
Discusses the Omega 328 microcontroller, its 28-pin package and pin diagram with port groupings and adc pins, plus 32 kilobytes flash, 1 kilobyte ram, 32 io pins.
Explore the Arduino integrated development environment to write and upload sketches, declare pins, and blink the built-in LED on pin 13 through the setup and loop structure.
Learn to program a microcontroller with Arduino, burn and upload code via the Arduino IDE, and control pins as input or output using setup, loop, and delay for blinking leds.
A microcontroller is a very important device during designing of an embedded system. It’s almost used in every electronic device. It plays very important role in processing of the data, data transmission, communication between different devices and displaying various information about the systems on display devices.
Knowledge of microcontroller is very important when we design embedded or digital systems. Few of the examples of microcontroller-based systems are Washing Machin, Printer, Scanner, Home Automation System etc.
There are various microcontroller-based boards available in the market like Arduino, STM32, ARM mbed KL25Z etc., hence to design some projects based on these boards its very important to understand the basics of microcontroller first.
This course is available for all students from schools and colleges. There is no prerequisite required to complete this course just having a few basics of digital electronics is required.
