ES-02 Embedded Skills (Basic Level)

This course covers basic embedded skills that are necessary for working with embedded systems. In this course, programming the Arduino and ESP-32 microcontrollers using C programming will be covered. The Arduino microcontroller is one of the most common microcontroller platforms currently in use. The ESP-32 microcontroller has built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, allowing seamless wireless connectivity, and is also widely used in the industry for the latest embedded solution. The knowledge gained from this course will be used in the intermediate and advanced courses.

Learning Outcome

• Usage of common embedded development tools
• Write embedded system software in C programming language
• Read analog voltage using ADC
• Generate PWM pulses using analog output
• Perform timing activities such as delay and reading current system tick
• Handle external interrupts
• Read/Write EEPROM non-volatile memory
• Perform serial communications with external devices
• Send/Receive data via TCP/IP communications on ESP-32
• Send/Receive data via Bluetooth communications on ESP-32
