This article describes the methods of Wire.h, a class for communicating with devices over an I2C bus that uses two signal wires called SDA and SCL to transmit data between them. We have quite a number of articles about this type of communication and used as the main bus to develop devices by yourself and run through the bus, for example, articles on using esp8266 to connect to Arduino Uno or using esp8266 with stm32f030f4p6, etc.
This article describes the implementation of the ESP32 microcontroller’s ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital-to-Analog Convertor) with MicroPython’s Python subclasses ADC and DAC, which fall under the machine class to learn both subclasses along with an example program to use the class as shown in Figure 1 as a basis for further development.
This article is to learn how to use the Pin class which is a subclass in the machine class of Micropython for use with ESP8266 or ESP32 microcontrollers.
From the previous article, we have experimented with controlling the digital signal output by driving the LED circuit connected to the STM32 microcontroller board, both Cortex-M0, Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4. to import digital signals and use an example of connecting a switch circuit to control the on or off of an LED lamp as shown in Figure 1.
This article is about using the _thread class with an ESP32 microcontroller with 2 cores. However, the thread class is a subset of the cython module and at the time of writing it is not yet fully available. The class structure is as shown in Figure 1 and the LockType subclass is as shown in Figure 2.
Random numbers in Python use the random class, but microcontrollers don’t support as much randomness as in computer systems, so Micropython supports different commands depending on the chip type. This article discusses how to use random with esp8266 and esp32 microcontrollers, which are instructed to just generate random numbers and configure the random seed as follows.
This article takes a detailed look at the Micropython machine.RTC class. The main function of this class is designed to be an RTC (Real-Time Clock) inside the microcontroller for storing date and time. It is more convenient when used with ESP8266 or ESP32 chip because NTP can be accessed to read the date and time from the internet and then store the value into the RTC to enable the accuracy and do not require frequent internet access to read the values again. This saves the use of external RTC circuits as well.
From the previous article, we have tried writing a program to study the elements of various files that we need, we found that there are quite a lot of details and steps. But it is an important basis for those who want to seriously and usefully study Cortex-M0 programming via STM32F030F4P6 (Figure 1), Cortex-M3 with STM32F103C (Figure 32) and Cortex-M4 with STM32F401CCU6 (Figure 27) to study of programming structure with programming tool STM32CubeIDE (Figure 2), which is the main tool used in this series of articles. This is because it combines ST’s complete development kit for ARM, including CubeMX for chip design, compiler toolkit, ST-Link program debugging tool and code editor in one tool, plus it supports both Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems.
This article is a tutorial on how to use esp and esp32 classes, which are dedicated classes for esp8266 and esp32 microcontrollers to access specific features and the internal abilities of the two chips.
From the article machine.Pin, it has been discussed using a microcontroller pin to import and export data and in the article I2C bus communication which uses the machine.I2C class to communicate between devices. Now let’s take a look at the machine.SPI class, another form of communication that has been recognized for its speed and is commonly used with a graphics display (esp8266/esp32 article) or SD-Card reader (esp8266, esp32article).
