Microcontroller threads goyim
What you working on?

Is that an atmega?
>>55072763
Not it's an 8052 based micro
An at89s52

good job OP, keep it up!

Loving ARM, I'm rocking an ARM Cortex-M3. Check out Particle IoT gear, it's awesome, Mobile and WiFi tiny M3 devices. Pictured is a the Photon, cheap $15 WiFi IoT gear.
Made a rfid tag cloner to mess around. Managed to open college lockers lmao.

Are there any nice libraries for connecting to wifi? Because I feel like it'd be a pain in c.
>>55072506
Finished 1st year of electronics, it was absolute shit: only math, physics and outdated theoretical bullcrap.
I intend on getting good at more hands-on stuff this summer. Was thinking about getting a microcontroller, some shields, and a soldering station, as well as picking up basic linux stuff.
How should I go about this with a more structured approach? I don't wanna be that guy with the garage full of boxes of stuff he never used.

Its already all written for you, you can push code and lower C firmware OTA.
Pictured is a snapshot of firmware IDE

more like micropenis, am I rite?
fucking nerds, get a fucking job
>>55072878
Holy fuck, who made that?
>>55072878
I would love this if it wasn't so fucking childish, waifutards are the worst.

first learn your right hand rule properly, and i'm not talking about jacking off to hentai
>>55072870
Ooh that's nice. Very nice
I was doing a thing with an arduino and a wifi module that was supposed to link my doorbell to phone notifications but I gave up at a certain point when I couldn't figure why the fuck the wifi module just doesn't want to work
What's a good resource for learning more about FPGAs?
>>55072818
That's sounds REALLY convenient, I might pick up one to play around with
>>55072870
what IDE is that?
>>55072915
93/100 average bookworm reporting in. I'm tired of learning for the sake of tests, I'd rather pass the year with ~70ish and actually know appliable stuff.
Also: I'm from eastern europe, our curriculum is different, we learned the right hand rule and calculus in hs.

Particle IDE, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgynIWlvvVI
>>55072946
you need to know the maths and physics involved in electronics by heart after you start making actual useful and/or interesting stuff
>>55072865
Buy a 10$ Chinese 8051 dev board
You can learn assembly that way pretty easy
Also start using Linux a daily driver, Ubuntu in specific. That will teach you enough
>>55072968
You sound like someone who just makes excuses and doesn't actually do anything in life.
>>55072968
Whew I forgot they ask for your peer-reviewed research paper on quantum tunnelling when you place your order for an arduino.
It's both frustrating and embarrassing to see colleagues who know how to solder circuits doing this and that while I don't know shit outside of the curriculum. I'm just asking what the first steps towards learning this sort of stuff are.
>>55072961
just bought a particle photon, maybe I'll finally be able to just make this shit work
>>55073051
Use the JTAG or SWD debug interface, you can directly access and dump the DCT Memory where all of the config is stored, like SSID Passwords, Private Keys etc, I'm gonna look into storing a BIP32 Bitcoin Master Seed in it.
>>55073029
I feel you bro
I joined electrical engineering because my dad told me there's a lot of money in it, but now I see excited classmates doing interesting shit all the time practically even though I am the top student in the batch and I don't know anything about except textbook knowledge
>>55073085
I really just need to send web requests to a server when a current signal is detected on a digital pin, it shouldn't be rocket science but apparently for me it is
>>55073007
so you are saying that working at mcdonald's means that i don't do nothing with my life? damn man, how low are your life standards?
>>55073029
i feel you, well, you can buy the stuff you mentioned and search some premade projects on the internet, try to understand how they do whatever they do, maybe you can modify something in them or just make something you need in your everyday life... it will keep you motivated until u actually start to learn "the cool shit"

>$15
It's price of Pine64.
