NXP Semiconductors N.V. has released its new version of integrated development environment for programming its ARM Cortex-based microcontrollers called LPC series. The new version LPCXpresso 6 ...

An increasing number of vendors offer 32-bit microcontrollers based on ARM® Cortex®-M processors, and at the same time, there are also new development environments introduced for these microcontroller ...

[Sergey Lyubka] put together this epic guide for bare-metal microcontroller programming. While the general concepts should be applicable to most any microcontroller, [Sergey]s examples specifically ...

Structures (or “structs” in C) allow you to group several related variables and treat them as one unit. They are a mechanism for extending the type system of the C language by introducing user-defined ...

A recent EDN article dealt with a number of programming tips for embedded microcontrollers. One of those tips, using state machines, is a programming approach that is especially useful, yet probably ...

Developers using Mitsubishi Electric & Electronics USA's M16C microcontroller can now use Embedded C++ (EC++), courtesy of Tasking's M16C Software Development Toolset V2.1. The compiler in the toolset ...

We love looking at hardcore electronics projects with a beefy microcontroller and hundreds, if not thousands, of lines of code at its center. But everyone needs to get there somehow. This tutorial ...

Microchip’s 16-bit dsPIC and PIC24 fit in the class of digital signal controllers. They were designed to support C so it is not surprising that Lucio Di Jasio chose to highlight PIC24 in C or that the ...
