There are several examples in Arduino IDE to help you get up and running with Arduino boards. In this tutorial, you will learn about each of them. 1. Basics Analog Read Serial: To read the value of a potentiometer and to display it in the Monitor Serial. Bare Minimum: To create a simple sketch with the most basic parts of the coding (setup and loop). Blink: Turns an LED on and off flashing. Digital Read Serial: Reads the status of a switch and displays it in the Monitor Serial. Fade: To...

Overview Today, there has been a growing interest in smart devices, automatic component control, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications in general. One of the key electrical components for IoT projects are ESP32 microcontroller-based modules. In this tutorial, we will teach you everything you need to know to get started with ESP32 boards. What You Will Learn Getting familiar with different ESP32 based development boards Getting familiar with ESP32 various features and applications Getting to know ...

Introduction Similar to Arduino IDE, Platform-IO is a programming environment for all types of microcontrollers. It provides an easier programming process and is available as an extension for the VS Code software. One notable advantage of Platform-IO IDE over Arduino IDE is that it automatically selects the appropriate port. In addition, Platform-IO IDE offers code suggestions to help complete and modify your code, and it eliminates errors caused by case sensitivity in Arduino IDE! Some other attractive fea...

Introduction Have you ever had difficulties while uploading code to an ESP32 board? This article deals with one of the most common errors that occurs during code uploading: “Failed to connect to ESP32: Timed out waiting for packet header.” To tackle this problem, we will introduce two methods. Steps to Troubleshooting “Failed to connect to ESP32” Error First of all, disconnect all wires connected to the ESP32 board. This simple thing might solve the issue! (Because the serial or USB pins could be in...

Introduction Welcome to the world of micro:bit! In this tutorial, you will learn how to code and program micro:bit using either MakeCode or Python. These two programming platforms offer different approaches to programming the micro:bit, catering to a wide range of learners and developers. Whether you prefer a block-based visual programming environment like MakeCode or the flexibility of text-based coding with Python, you will gain the skills to bring your ideas to life and create exciting projects with the ...

Introduction If you are familiar with programming for STM, ESP, and RP2040 microcontrollers, you must have heard of MicroPython programming language.To write code in this language, you need specific software. One of the most common integrated development environments (IDE) designed for programming in Micropython language is Thonny - MicroPython software.In this tutorial, we will learn how to work with this software. Therefore, at the end of this tutorial, you should be able to write a simple code in Mic...
