This book is project-based and aims to teach the software tools behind STM32 microcontroller programming. Author Majid Pakdel has developed projects using various different software development environments including Keil MDK, IAR Embedded Workbench, Arduino IDE and MATLAB. Readers should be able to use the projects as they are, or modify them to suit to their own needs. This book is written for students, established engineers, and hobbyists. STM32 microcontroller development boards includin...

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible.

A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios.

In this book, you'll learn how to:

- Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements.

- Create your o...

If you are looking for a small yet powerful IoT device, you are likely to come across the ESP8266 and compatible products on the market today. One of these, the Wemos/Lolin D1 Mini Pro board strikes a remarkable balance between cost and performance. A small and very affordable prototype board, the D1 Mini Pro stands out with its WiFi functionality and a 16-Mbytes flash memory for easy creation of a flash file system. In addition, there are sufficient input and output pins (only one analog i...

The short-wave technique has a very particular appeal: It can easily bridge long distances. By reflecting short-wave signals off the conductive layers of the ionosphere, they can be received in places beyond the horizon and therefore can reach anywhere on earth. Although technology is striving for ever higher frequencies, and radio is usually listened to on FM, DAB+, satellite or the Internet, modern means of transmission require extensive infrastructure and are extremely vulnerable. In the e...

This book is about developing projects using the sensor-modules with Arduino Uno, Raspberry Pi and ESP32 microcontroller development systems. More than 40 different sensors types are used in various projects in the book. The book explains in simple terms and with tested and fully working example projects, how to use the sensors in your project. The projects provided in the book include the following:

- Changing LED brightness

- RGB LEDs

- Creating rainbow colours

- Magic wand

- Silent door alarm

- Dark sensor with re...

Programming embedded systems is difficult because of resource constraints and limited debugging facilities. Why develop your own Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) as well as your application when the proven FreeRTOS software is freely available? Why not start with a validated foundation?

Every software developer knows that you must divide a difficult problem into smaller ones to conquer it. Using separate preemptive tasks and FreeRTOS communication mechanisms, a clean separation of functions ...
