Over the years, we’ve seen some modern microcontrollers turn out to be 5V-tolerant – now, RP2040 joins the crowd. Half a year ago, when we covered an ISA card based on a Pi Pico, [Eben Upton] left a ...

The project illustrates several ways in which a 3.3V device, such as sensor, can be safely interfaced to a 5V microcontroller. Connecting a 3.3V device like the SCP1000-D01 pressure sensor with SPI ...

If you’ve ever thought of utilizing a small and inexpensive OLED display in your project [Rossum] has the details you need to get started. In the past we’ve seen him take a tour of available LCD ...

Series offers LCD capability and 32kHz sub-oscillator for low power modes to keep consumption down, even at start-up. Renesas Technology Europe has made available the H8/38327F series of ‘low cost, ...

The PIC24F “KM” family provides a new level of integrated analog functionality such as a 12-bit ADC with threshold detection, 8-bit DACs for analog control loops and precision comparator references, ...

Freescale Semiconductor (NYSE:FSL) (NYSE:FSL.B) is providing embedded developers a cost-effective microcontroller (MCU) solution to help expand their application possibilities. As personal electronic ...

GENEVA -- Sept. 28, 2006-- STMicroelectronics has extended its popular STR7 range of 32-bit microcontrollers based on the ARM7TDMI-S(TM) core with the introduction of the super-integrated STR750F ...

Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ: ATML), a global leader in microcontroller (MCU) and touch solutions, today introduced the world’s first full 5V Arm Cortex-M0+-based MCU family with integrated peripheral ...

Many downplay the importance of 8-bit microcontrollers given the latest crop of 32-bit micros but developers know that choosing the right microcontroller for the job is more important than using a ...

In portable and space-constrained systems designers have the option to use microcontrollers with integrated analogue-to-digital converters (ADCs) or lower resolution ADCs with preamplifier circuitry.

In this article, I'll be explaining the basics of how microcontrollers work, physically and virtually. First off, microcontrollers are no simple thing, so don't be discouraged if you find it ...
