Arduino Beginners Tutorial: BMP Sensor using I2C
Introduction The BMP family of sensors from Bosch Sensortec are temperature and pressure sensors that are incredibly small and precise (more information on these sensors can be found here). They have many uses in industrial applications as well as hobbyist arduino projects. However, due to their tiny size, handling these sensors can be challenging for… Continue reading Arduino Beginners Tutorial: BMP Sensor using I2C
STM32F4 Discovery Beginners Tutorial: Blink LEDs
Introduction Here we will present a short and straightforward tutorial to cover the basics of using the general-purpose inputs/outputs (GPIO) on the STM32F4 Discovery using the Keil µVision IDE in the C language. Whilst blinking LEDs may seem basic, the process of setting up the GPIO is instrumental in every future project you undertake with… Continue reading STM32F4 Discovery Beginners Tutorial: Blink LEDs
