Recently, the development of a tiny chip called the ESP8266 has made it possible to interface any type of microcontroller to a Wi-Fi AP. The ESP8266 is a low-cost tiny Wi-Fi chip having fully built-in TCP/IP stack and a 32-bit microcontroller unit. This chip, produced by Shanghai based Chinese manufacturer Espressif System, is IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi compatible with on-chip program and data memory, and general purpose input-output ports. Several manufacturers have incorporated the ESP8266 chip in their hardware products (e.g. ESP-xx, NodeMCU etc) and offer these products as a means of connecting a microcontroller system such as the Android, PIC microcontroller or others to a Wi-Fi. The ESP8266 is a low-power chip and costs only a few Dollars. ESP8266 and MicroPython – Coding Cool Stuff is an introduction to the ESP8266 chip and describes the features of this chip and shows how various firmware and programming languages such as the MicroPython can be uploaded to the chip. The main aim of the book is to teach the readers how to use the MicroPython programming language on ESP8266 based hardware, especially on the NodeMCU. Several interesting and useful projects are given in the e-book (pdf) to show how to use the MicroPython in NodeMCU type ESP8266 hardware: Project “What shall I wear today?”: You will be developing a weather information system using a NodeMCU development board together with a Text-to-Speech processor module. Project “The Temperature and Humidity on the Cloud”: You will be developing a system that will get the ambient temperature and humidity using a sensor and then store this data on the cloud so that it can be accessed from anywhere. Project “Remote Web Based Control”: You will be developing a system that will remotely control two LEDs connected to a NodeMCU development board using an HTTP Web Server application.

ARM Cortex-M Embedded Design from 0 to 1 Hobbyists can mash together amazing functional systems using platforms like Arduino or Raspberry Pi, but it is imperative that engineers and product designers understand the foundational knowledge of embedded design. There are very few resources available that describe the thinking, strategies, and processes to take an idea through hardware design and low-level driver development, and successfully build a complete embedded system. Many engineers end up learning the hard way, or never really learn at all. ARM processors are essentially ubiquitous in embedded systems. Design engineers building novel devices must understand the fundamentals of these systems and be able to break down large, complicated ideas into manageable pieces. Successful product development means traversing a huge amount of documentation to understand how to accomplish what you need, then put everything together to create a robust system that will reliably operate and be maintainable for years to come. This book is a case study in embedded design including discussion of the hardware, processor initialization, low‑level driver development, and application interface design for a product. Though we describe this through a specific application of a Cortex-M3 development board, our mission is to help the reader build foundational skills critical to being an excellent product developer. The completed development board is available to maximize the impact of this book, and the working platform that you create can then be used as a base for further development and learning. The Embedded in Embedded program is about teaching fundamental skill sets to help engineers build a solid foundation of knowledge that can be applied in any design environment. With nearly 20 years of experience in the industry, the author communicates the critical skill development that is demanded by companies and essential to successful design. This book is as much about building a great design process, critical thinking, and even social considerations important to developers as it is about technical hardware and firmware design.

Le monde de l'électronique est à la fois vaste et… tout petit ! Voici un livre qui confirme ces deux constatations contradictoires. En effet, en électronique, tout touche à tout, d'une manière ou d'une autre. Le plus petit détail peut avoir les plus grandes conséquences, et pas toujours celles que l'on attendrait. L'objectif de l'auteur de cette série d'articles autonomes intitulée hors-circuits, réunis ici en un livre, n'est pas de vous tenir par la main. Robert Lacoste, électronicien professionnel de haut-niveau, vous donne des pistes pour comprendre ce qui paraît mystérieux. Il vous guide juste assez pour vous permettre ensuite de progresser tout seul. Avec lui, non seulement vous repousserez vos propres limites, mais saurez aussi détecter celles du matériel et du logiciel que vous utilisez. En vous invitant à repasser par les notions de physique de base, il vous permettra de séparer les véritables progrès techniques des laïus commerciaux. Les bases, ça peut mener loin D'où vient la sensibilité d'un récepteur d'ondes radio ? Pourquoi le téléchargement d'une vidéo sur votre portable est-il beaucoup plus lent à la campagne qu'en centre-ville ? Si pour vous la réponse technique à des questions comme celles-ci (et bien d'autres que vous n'osez peut-être même pas vous poser) n'est pas évidente, ce livre vous aidera à y voir plus clair. Oui, on peut être à l'aise avec les microcontrôleurs, mais dérouté par le comportement d'un simple transistor. Vous sentez-vous concerné par de telles interrogations ? Ce livre est donc pour vous. Sans aucune formule mathématique qui ne soit pas à la portée d'un lycéen, il balaye tout le champ de l'électronique, depuis l'analogique jusqu'au traitement numérique du signal en passant par le domaine si redouté des hautes-fréquences. La théorie ne s'y éloigne jamais beaucoup de la loi d'Ohm ! Avec des mots simples, l'auteur explique comment ça marche, pourquoi parfois ça ne marche pas comme on veut, et comment mieux utiliser différentes techniques dans vos propres projets pour que ça marche.

L’électronique utilisée est simple, et constitue une belle démonstration des possibilités. Kit de démarrage du livre « 36 expériences de physique avec Arduino » disponible séparément ! - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bG_IpyGBKNY- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySBvh8XgyvA L'auteurL’auteur pratique l’électronique depuis de nombreuses années. Ses premiers articles publiés par le magazine Elektor dans ses premiers numéros datent de bien avant l’apparition des petits ordinateurs domestiques pour lesquels il se passionnera. Ses sujets de prédilection devinrent le ZX81 et le standard MSX. Aujourd’hui, il revient avec des idées très personnelles et des projets originaux, pour le plus grand bénéfice des lecteurs intéressés par l’électronique programmée.Revisiter les lois de la physique ? Avec Arduino, c’est instructif et amusant. Il fallait y penser… Gravité, réfraction, couleurs, vitesse du son, pendule, masse, élasticité, pression, aimants… deviennent de passionnants objets d’expérimentation avec Willem van Dreumel.

The PC has long-time outgrown its function as a pure computer and has become an all-purpose machine. This book is targeted towards those people that want to control existing or self-built hardware from their computer. Using Visual Basic as Rapid Application Development tool we will take you on a journey to unlock the world beyond the connectors of the PC. After familiarising yourself with Visual Basic, its development environment and the toolset it offers, items such as serial communications, printer ports, bit-banging, protocol emulation, ISA, USB and Ethernet interfacing and the remote control of test-equipment over the GPIB bus, are covered in extent. Each topic is accompanied by clear, ready to run code, and where necessary, schematics are provided that will get your projects up to speed in no time. This book will show you advanced things like: using tools like Debug to find hardware addresses, setting up remote communication using TCP/IP and UDP sockets and even writing your own internet servers. Or how about connecting your own block of hardware over USB or Ethernet and controlling it from Visual Basic. Other things like internet-program communication, DDE and the new graphics interface of Windows XP are covered as well. All examples are ready to compile using Visual Basic 5.0, 6.0, NET or 2005. Extensive coverage is given on the differences between what could be called Visual Basic Classic and Visual basic .NET / 2005.

This book is intended for electronics enthusiasts and professionals alike, who want a much deeper understanding of the incredible technology conquests over the pre-digital decades that created video. It details evolution of analogue video electronics and technology from the first electro-mechanical television, through advancements in Cathode Ray Tubes, transistor circuits and signal processing, up to the latest analogue, colour-rich TV, entertainment devices and calibration equipment. Key technological advances that enabled monochrome video and, eventually, colour are explained. The importance, compromises and techniques of maintaining crucial backward legacy compatibilities are described. The generation, signal processing and playback of analogue video signals in numerous capture, display, recording and playback devices together with operating principles and practices are examined. Technical and, often, political merits and deficiencies of key national and international video standards are highlighted. Several formats are shown to win and ultimately to co-exist. This book begins at fairly basic levels; concepts are introduced with human physiological perceptions of light and colour explained. This leads to the subject matter of luminance and chrominance; their equations and the circuits to process. There is full, detailed analysis of waveform shapes and timings inside video equipment and relevant popular connections e.g. S-video. Several analogue video projects which you can build yourself are also included in this book; with schematics, circuit board layouts and calibration steps to help you obtain the best results. The book makes use of many colour pages where the subject matter demands it (e.g. test cards). If you really want a deeper understanding of analogue video then this book is for you!
