This class provides a detailed description of the key elements of the Renesas Synergy Platform. It will focus on the Synergy MCUs and the integration of Express Logic Thread-X RTOS, GUIX, USBX, FILEX and NETX elements in the Synergy Software Package.

This class will provide a quick overview of key RTOS concepts including the key concepts behind threaded designs, the techniques for inter-thread communications, and some of the new design 'thinking' needed to make the most of the power of RTOS...

Python can be used in embedded systems for much more than microcontrollers. In this session, we will examine how Python can be used control development tools. Attendees will walk away with an appreciation for how to write Python scripts that are...

Running MicroPython on the Pyboard is one thing but what if a developer wants port or customize MicroPython to work on a different platform? In this session, we will explore how to customize and build MicroPython to run on off the shelf...

In this session attendees will be walked through the process of connecting to and communicating with external devices and boards. Attendees will examine how to write data to an external EEPROM and Bluetooth device to transmit sensor debug data...

Understanding when and where it makes sense to use Python in the embedded system development cycle is a first step for any developer interested in using Python. This session will examine the Python programming language and introduce MicroPython...

The PyBoard is based on an ARM Cortex-M4 processor which has a large number of internal peripherals and capabilities. In this session, we'll examine what libraries are available through MicroPython to control these peripherals and features...

This final class will take us off the beaten path of graphics interface development. We will discard the complex proprietary graphics tools that are normally associated with embedded graphics design. Instead, we will build a robust full-color...

Mag Jacks and WiFi radios rule today. We will discuss and examine various ways to implement 802.3 and 802.11 communication links using the PIC32MX microcontroller.

In this session, we will create a 32-bit microSD-equipped device based on the PIC32MX microcontroller. We will balance the microSD equation by implementing a microSD solution on a PIC32MZ-based Digilent Wi-Fire development platform.
