Description
Welcome to Learning Microcontrollers!

Hi everyone,

I'm excited to welcome you toLearning Microcontrollers, a hands-on course designed to introduce you to the world of embedded systems and electronics.

Since 2019, I've been creating embedded systems tutorials and guiding learners of all levels—from complete beginners to experienced developers. Over the years, I've learned exactly how to break down complex topics into easy-to-understand concepts, helping you build real-world projects while mastering essential skills.

This course is structured to get your hands dirty with practical electronics. Instead of just learning theory, you'll be building actual projects as you progress through the lessons.

For example, in one of the lectures, you'll learn how to create a Bluetooth-controlled RC car using thePIC16F877A microcontrollerand aBluetooth module. Through this project, you'll gain valuable experience in:

Understanding and designing electronic circuits

Wiring components with microcontrollers

Programming microcontrollers to perform real-world tasks

The best part is that the skills you learn with thePIC16F877AusingMikroC for PICare easily transferable. Once you're familiar with this setup, you’ll be able to apply the same concepts and code structure to a wide range of PIC microcontrollers—includingPIC12,PIC18,PIC24,PIC32, anddsPIC. They all use similar command sets in MikroC; the only differences are typically the pin assignments and clock configurations.

That’s why I say:Learn one, and you’ve learned them all!
