IR Signal Decoder using TSOP1838 IR Receiver and STM8S Microcontroller IR or infrared is one of the simplest and easiest ways to transfer data wirelessly. This property of IR makes it undetectable to the human eye and perfect for wireless communication. Apart from that IR receiver comes with a very limited range which is why it's perfect for short-range home automation projects, TV remotes, accurate range detection, RP detection… |

Pulse width Modulation (PWM) with STM8 using Cosmic C and STVD: Controlling Brightness of LED
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is a type of analog modulating technique in which the duration or width of the pulse changes in accordance with the time. It is a commonly used technique to produce a continuous pulse signal with a defined frequency and duty cycle. In short, PWM is about changing the width of a pulse while the frequency remains constant. … |

Serial UART Communication on STM8 using Cosmic C and STVD - Print / Read Characters and Strings Programming a new microcontroller often takes a longer time due to the new register handling methods and not knowing what bit does exactly what. The same goes for debugging as well without saying. This is why programmers quite often use breakpoints in their code and step through it using a debugger. But using a debugger might need additional hardware (most times expensive)… |

Programming STM8S Microcontrollers using Arduino IDE Arduino has undoubtedly grown into a user friendly and quick prototyping tool, thanks to its supportive user community. Today, because of its open-source nature, the platform is not only limited to the Arduino boards but also to other development boards like the NodeMCU, ESP8266, STM32, MSP430, etc. can also be programmed from the Arduino IDE. If you are interested in… |

GPIO Functions on STM8S using Cosmic C and SPL – Blinking and Controlling LED with Push Button For microcontrollers, an LED blinking program is equivalent to the “hello world” program. In our previous tutorial, we learned how to get started with STM8S103F3 Development Board and how to set up the IDE and compiler to program our STM8S controllers. We have also learned how to use the standard peripheral libraries, and how to compile and upload the code into our… |
