Master PIC Microcontroller Programming in Embedded C

Course details

This course teaches you the basic fundamentals of embedded systems firmware development and hardware design using Microchip PIC Microcontrollers. The content of the course is designed with a hands-on/workshop approach. In this course, we don't use any libraries. Instead we will be developing libraries for each peripheral and internal modules.

Each section have descriptive tutorials, workflow diagrams and explanations, hands-on videos, programming tips. The step by step tutorials will guide both beginners and advanced users to learn the fundamentals of embedded systems and interfacing.

Features of this course

• Learn driver development of various interfaces and internal modules
• Learn hardware design fundamentals of various interfaces
• Learn register level/bare metal programming
• Learn interrupt drivenfirmware development
• We haven'tused any firmwarelibraries for this course, insteadwe teach youhow to create one for every interface

Hardware Platform used in this course

We've used OpenLab PIC Platform which is based on PIC18F4550 microcontroller. You can use your own development boards which should be either PIC18F/PIC16F families. There will be some minor changes in the firmware based on the controllers you've opted.

Software tools used:

1. MPLABX IDE
2. XC8 compiler

Both are available in all the OS platforms and are cross platform compatible.
