Having access to a debugger can speed and simplify the process of fielding anything that includes a microcontroller. Debuggers are able to support code upload and real-time debugging such as ...

Going from a microcontroller blinking an LED, to one that blinks the LED using voice commands based on a data set that you trained on a neural net work is a “now draw the rest of the owl” problem.

Actuators, such as switches and motors, are also connected to the same microcontroller. It carries embedded code that can acquire the data from sensors and control the actuators. The rise of ...

On a microcontroller, though, you’ll have to roll your own CPU load meter with a few parts, some code, and a voltmeter. We like [Dave Marples]’s simple approach to quantifying something as ...
