By textbook definition, Embedded Electronics can be defined as a system that “Integrates Hardware circuitry with software programming techniques to provide real-time solutions”. From age old pocket calculators to advanced automobile and security devices the applications of Embedded System continue to show a strong progress.
In this section we will discuss about the various embedded controllers and embedded development platforms including, but not limited to Arduino, Raspberry Pi, NodeMCU, ESP32, Microchip, AVR, ARM, MSP430, STM32, STM8S, Nuvoton etc. It also updates the readers with latest Embedded News and technology trends to help them plan and design their Embedded Projects with ease.
STMicroelectronics has unveiled new automotive microcontrollers that are optimized for electric vehicles and centralized (domain and zonal) electronic architectures and enable EVs to become more affordable, drive further, and charge faster. These new Stellar E MCUs extend ST’s Arm-based Stellar family and are designed from the ground up with the car as a…
When you are searching for a Microcontroller there is a lot of variety available in the market from various reputed manufacturers like Microchip, ST Microelectronic, Texas Instruments, and the list goes on and on. But when we try to differentiate those microcontrollers with form factor vs features vs price, it gets very hard to choose one. However, Megawin, a…

In this tutorial, we will learn about the implementation of the Serial Parallel Interface (SPI) Communication on the STM8S103F3P6 board using an 8x8 Led matrix display module as the SPI device. There are 4 GPIO pins that we will be using to perform the SPI communication as shown in the image below. So, let…
Maxim Integrated’s new MAX78000 ultra-low power neural-network microcontroller detects and localizes faces in video and images using Xailient’s proprietary Detectum neural network. Xailient’s neural network draws 250x lower power (at just 280 microJoules) than conventional embedded solutions available in the market, and at 12 milliseconds (ms) per inference, the network…
In this article, we are going to perform the I2C Communication on STM8S microcontroller by using the MLX90614 I2C sensor. We will measure the Ambient Temperature and the Object’s Temperature and then we will display the measured temperature on the LCD. If you are following the STM8S Microcontroller Tutorials, you would know that we have already covered the basics of the…
Distance measurement of an object in the path of the person, equipment, or a vehicle or moving object is used in a large number of applications such as robotic movement control, vehicle control, blind man’s walking stick, medical equipment, etc. There are many methods available for distance measurement but measurement using Ultrasonic sensor is one of the cheapest among…
