If you want to try microcontroller programming but think the tools are too complicated or too expensive you should order Elektor’s new book PIC Microcontroller Programming. The book shows you how to ...

Project by Noel A. Rios. Complete schematics and full source code are available. Here is an 8051-series flash microcontroller programmer which can program the AT89C2051, AT89C4051, AT89C51, AT89C52, ...

As promised, this part starts with a simple programming tutorial on the PIC12F675 microcontroller which shows you how to program and use it as a simple LED flasher. It’s assumed that you have ...

When working on a project, plenty of us will reach for an Atmel microcontroller because of the widespread prevalence of the Arduino platform. A few hackers would opt for a bit more modern part like an ...

This is going to be our first C language project with the PIC24 16-bit microcontroller and, for some of you, the first project with the MPLAB IDE Integrated Development Environment and the MPLAB C30 ...

Imagine you’re stuck on a desert island, hundreds of miles away from the nearest person, and you finally have time to finish that project you’re working on. You have a single microcontroller, but ...

The programmer software provided by STC for their 8051-compatible microcontrollers (MCUs) only runs on Microsoft Windows. For developers who are more used to other operating systems, this project, ...
