Microcontrollers and Embedded Systems Explained
In this video I talk to you about microcontrollers and embedded systems. I cover what microprocessors are, where microprocessors are found and how they can be used in your own projects. I also discuss the STM32F4 Discovery & STM32 Nucleo-64 development boards and provide my thoughts on why the STM32 is a better choice than an Arduino.

  1. Hi dear. I’d love you to give the manner or advice so that I can understand STM32 because when I see a code HAL I panicked suddenly. Best regards 😒

  2. wahoo so you can write your own C program to give instruction to the MC, i thought everything was set in advance. that make it interesting

  3. What is the different between firmware and software driver in a microcontroller? Do they are different, or just they are just same meaning?

  4. You said one was a F4 chip… these are the same chips that F4 drone controller boards are based on…? I wonder then if could just adapt one of these controllers for r/c, as they seem to have way enough power for flight πŸ€”πŸ˜‰

  5. I am not into all these electronic and technical things and often are too hard for me to understand,but this was explained so straightforward! Thankyou so much

  6. Today i found you on instagram and then visited your YouTube channel and became your fan ❀️ , you really inspired me πŸ™‚

  7. Just wanted to thank you for delivering amazing content. You’ve also inspired me to produce my own content as an engineer (still a student). Really appreciate what you do πŸ™‚ Please don’t stop!!

  8. Made a similar switch away from Arduino to STM32 last year, the mcus are so much more capable. CubeMX (Eclipse) is a much better IDE too.

  9. Thanks for stressing these are development boards. More attention needs to be drawn to the fact these boards are for testing and development. It’s frustrating reading about projects that have a whole Arduino UNO board left in when the parts they actually need would be way cheaper to use on their own.

  10. Can you cover content specific to C/C++ programming for STM32? For example, using the CubeIDE and the pros/cons of C vs C++ for hardware projects? Thanks!

  11. Wow i did not know you were into electronics too . Your freecad videos have really helped me. thanks

  12. I’ve been messing with electronics for over 40 years and you have one of the best deliveries of of content and an excellent way of explaining concepts i have seen in many years. Very good job , keep it up.

  13. I believe peripherals are those iOS which are connected to microprocessor and results into microcontroller. For example ADC, DAC, PWM, I2C, SPI, UART, CAN, etc..

  14. Great stuff Sir!
    You’re freecad tutes are easily the most articulate and understandable videos on the subject.
    I’m really looking forward to the microcontroller series.

  15. I have to buil a college project on IOT solution for elderly care and I need to come up with new idea……..plz help me out

    Thank u
