The CEC will get you up to speed quickly on a host of technologies you've been meaning to study via a series of 45-minute online lessons taught by our faculty of expert tutors.
April 26 - Day 1 - Introduction to Machine Learn on MCU’s
Machine learning (ML) has often been considered a technology that operates on high-end servers and doesn’t have a place in traditional embedded systems. That perception is quickly changing. In this session, attendees will get a brief introduction...
March 26 - Day 5 - Electromechanical Relay Flasher
Attendees will build a simple electromechanical relay timer using a micro:bit and MicroPython. The operation of a transistor relay control circuit will be discussed.  Basic electronic sensing and control applications will be discussed in this...
March 25 - Day 4 -MicroPython Limit Detection Simulator
MicroPython will be demonstrated in this session. The application of detecting rotary or linear mechanical motion can be accomplished with the micro:bit and MicroPython.  Mechanical limit detection of such physical motions can be accomplished with...
March 24 - Day 3 - Converting Blockly Code to MicroPython
On Day 3, attendees will explore Blockly Code to MicroPython using a micro:bit Blink and Breathe application.  Attendees will learn how to convert Blockly Code to MicroPython. The wiring of the micro:bit to a 3-watt LED will be presented.
March 23 - Day 2 - MicroPython and Switches
This session will allow attendees to explore micro:bit’s tactile switches through MicroPython coding. The two tactile switches will be investigated through a series of hands-on MicroPython lab activities. The concept of testing the micro:bit...
February 25 - Day 4 - Toolchain Setup for Dual-Core MCU’s
Developing applications for a multicore microcontroller is not exactly the same as a single-core processor. In this session, we will explore how to set up the STM toolchain to write application code on each core of the microcontroller. Attendees...
