This demo is implemented on a custom hardware (see Figure 1) equipped with a STM32L476VG microcontroller [1, 2]. The microSD card is connected to the MCU over SDIO interface. The implementation uses ...

The primary objective of this project is to display an image on a TFT screen using two microcontrollers. The first microcontroller contains the application, which runs the code and controls the ...

Now you understand that what is a bootloader is and what are the benefits of a bootloader. Inspired by many online tutorials, now I am giving you an introduction to install a bootloader into your own ...

While things like the Arduino platform certainly opened up the gates of microcontroller programming to a much wider audience, it can also be limiting in some ways. The Arduino IDE, for example, ...

Some argue that providing update capability is a common need but not a must. That's understandable. But consider the peace of mind that comes with knowing you can fix bugs discovered after the system ...

A bootloader helps to update a system’s software without a dedicated programmer. It also solves the purpose of feature enhancement. This article covers how to manage interrupts between the bootloader ...

A Flash Bootloader module is designed to update the firmware without using of any specialized hardware such as JTAG. The Flash Bootloader module is the first software module that gets activated during ...

Microcontrollers have proliferated into every nook and cranny of our daily lives from simple 8-bit devices that control our toaster ovens to powerful 32-bit DSPs that provide us with the rich media ...

While newer Arduinos and Arduino compatibles (including the Hackaday.io Trinket Pro. Superliminal Advertising!) either have a chip capable of USB or rely on a V-USB implementation, the old fogies of ...

A bootloader makes it possible to update a product’s firmware in the field. Common communication interfaces like UART, I 2 C, SPI or USB can be used to update the firmware, which typically involves a ...
