    Elektor Publishing Hands-on Microcontroller Course for Advanced Arduino Users

    32 new Projects, Practical Examples and Exercises with the Elektor Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board Electronics and microcontroller technology offer the opportunity to be creative. This practical microcontroller course provides you with the chance to bring your own Arduino projects and experience such moments of success. Ideally, everything works as you imagined when you switch it on for the first time. In practice, however, things rarely work as expected. At that point, you need knowledge to efficiently search for and find the reason for the malfunction. In this book for advanced users, we delve deep into the world of microcontrollers and the Arduino IDE to learn new procedures and details, enabling you to successfully tackle and solve even more challenging situations. With this book, the author gives the reader the necessary tools to create projects independently and also to be able to find errors quickly. Instead of just offering ready-made solutions, he explains the background, the hardware used, and any tools required. He sets tasks in which the reader contributes their own creativity and writes the Arduino sketch themselves. If you don’t have a good idea and get stuck, there is, of course, a suggested solution for every project and every task, along with the corresponding software, which is commented on and explained in detail in the book. This practical course will teach you more about the inner workings of the Arduino Nano and its microcontroller. You will get to know hardware modules that you can use to realize new and interesting projects. You will familiarize yourself with software methods such as ‘state machines,’ which can often be used to solve problems more easily and clearly. The numerous practical projects and exercise sketches are once again realized on the Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board, which you may already be familiar with from the course book ‘Microcontrollers Hands-on Course for Arduino Starters’, and which contains all the hardware peripherals and operating elements we need for the input/output operations of our sketches.

  • Les microcontrôleurs PIC pour les débutants - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing Les microcontrôleurs PIC pour les débutants

    Dans ce livre, Rémy Mallard initie les débutants à la programmation des microcontrôleurs PIC de Microchip. Après une introduction (pas trop longue) à des principes essentiels de programmation, il propose des chapitres qui regroupent les informations théoriques et pratiques nécessaires à la réalisation de chaque montage. Il fait la part belle aux « petits » microcontrôleurs 8 bits parce qu'ils sont bon marché et faciles à trouver. Toutefois comme il l'écrit : « ce n'est ni vouloir s'enfermer dans sa coquille, ni faire preuve d'insociabilité, que de s'attacher à ces petites bêtes… Cette famille 8 bits, même si on la qualifie « de base », permet tout de même de disposer de comparateurs, d'oscillateur interne, de modules de conversion analogique/numérique (CAN), de modules de communication à deux fils ou série, de générateurs à rapport cyclique variable entre autres ». C'est pourquoi les réalisations proposées vont bien au-delà du simple chenillard à LED et couvrent un grand nombre de besoins. Le lecteur apprendra comment interfacer des capteurs avec un microcontrôleur, comment acquérir et stocker des données, ou encore comment établir une liaison USB ou Ethernet pour transmettre des données. Toutes ces techniques, combinées les unes avec les autres comme des briques, permettront au lecteur de créer par la suite des montages encore plus ambitieux. Le logiciel des différents montages est codé en langage Pascal. mikroPascal, l'environnement de développement proposé par MikroElektronika et utilisé par l'auteur, dispose dans sa version gratuite de toutes les fonctions (éditeur, débogueur, simulateur, compilateur, pilotage des programmateurs) de la version payante, mais la taille du code est limitée à 2 Ko (ce qui suffisant pour la plupart des projets du livre). Le lecteur a le choix du programmateur pour transférer le code dans le microcontrôleur (matériel MikroElektronika ou Microchip). Après la lecture de ce livre, gagné par la bonne humeur communicative de Rémy et fort de sa longue expérience (qu'il partage volontiers), le lecteur n'aura qu'une seule envie : aller plus loin (transposer le code dans d'autres langages, le porter sur d'autres plates-formes de développement, s'attaquer aux PIC32…).

  • Get Started with the SensorTile.box - Elektor

    Elektor Publishing H0W2: Get Started with the SensorTile.box

    STmicroelectronics’ wireless IoT & wearable sensor development kit ‘SensorTile.box’ is a portable multi-sensor circuit board housed in a plastic box and developed by STMicroelectronics. It is equipped with a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 processor with DSP and FPU, and various sensor modules, such as accelerometer, gyroscope, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, atmospheric pressure sensor, microphone, and so on. SensorTile.box is ready to use with wireless IoT and Bluetooth connectivity that can easily be used with an iOS or Android compatible smartphone, regardless of the level of expertise of the users. SensorTile.box is shipped with a long-life battery and all the user has to do is connect the battery to the circuit to start using the box. The SensorTile.box can be operated in three modes: Basic mode, Expert mode, and Pro mode. Basic mode is the easiest way of using the box since it is pre-loaded with demo apps and all the user has to do is choose the required apps and display or plot the measured data on a smartphone using an app called STE BLE Sensor. In Expert mode users can develop simple apps using a graphical wizard provided with the STE BLE Sensor. Pro mode is the most complex mode allowing users to develop programs and upload them to the SensorTile.box. This book is an introduction to the SensorTile.box and includes the following: Brief specifications of the SensorTile.box; description of how to install the STE BLE Sensor app on an iOS or Android compatible smartphone required to communicate with the box. Operation of the SensorTile.box in Basic mode is described in detail by going through all of the pre-loaded demo apps, explaining how to run these apps through a smartphone. An introduction to the Expert mode with many example apps developed and explained in detail enabling users to develop their own apps in this mode. Again, the STE BLE Sensor app is used on the smartphone to communicate with the SensorTile.box and to run the developed apps. The book then describes in detail how to upload the sensor data to the cloud. This is an important topic since it allows the sensor measurements to be accessed from anywhere with an Internet connection, at any time. Finally, Pro mode is described in detail where more experienced people can use the SensorTile.box to develop, debug, and test their own apps using the STM32 open development environment (STM32 ODE). The Chapter explains how to upload the developed firmware to the SensorTile.box using several methods. Additionally, the installation and use of the Unicleo-GUI package is described with reference to the SensorTile.box. This PC software package enables all of the SensorTile.box sensor measurements to be displayed or plotted in real time on the PC.
