In designing µC-based systems, you often face a situation in which the µC has to respond to an external event happening at an uncertain moment in time. One example is receiving an echo from an object ...

Debouncing button or switch inputs on microcontrollers can be a challenging problem for those first starting to program these devices. Part of the reason for this difficulty is that real-world buttons ...

The need for timing in embedded programming often exceeds the small number of available hardware timers in microcontrollers. For example, the Microchip PIC16F84A has one timer, but you can create as ...

What’s the biggest difference between writing code for your big computer and a microcontroller? OK, the memory and limited resources, sure. But we were thinking more about the need to directly ...

Riding the PC/104 bus in the company of a PIC18F8722 microcontroller from Microchip Technology, the MC104P controller module provides access to external memory and interrupts in the same manner as ...

Designed for use in vaarious automotive and industrial control applications, the MB91F367G and MB91F368G 32-bit, CANbus microcontrollers integrate on-chip peripherals, including UARTs, I2C and serial ...
