Welcome to my series on embedded systems design projects!

Embedded systems are computer systems integrated into other devices or products to perform a specific function. They are found in many everyday products, including cell phones, cars, and appliances, and play a crucial role in modern technology.

This series will explore various embedded systems projects you can create on your own. These projects are designed to be educational and fun and will introduce you to the basics of embedded systems design and programming.

We will cover microcontroller programming, interfacing with sensors and actuators, bare-metal programming, hardware driver development and building user interfaces throughout the series. I will also provide step-by-step instructions and all the necessary resources to help you complete each project.

What this series is not

This series will not teach you how to write computer programs or analyse circuits. The knowledge is assumed. I will not go into detail about the architectural details or instruction sets of the microprocessors and microcontrollers used in this series (they will not be required anyways, as we will be programming them using a high-level language). Basics of circuit theory and intermediate-level knowledge of C language programming are required to navigate this series successfully. I hope to keep the series simple and informative, so I will not dive deep into the mathematics behind the concepts I introduce or why they work or make sense. I will provide links to relevant external materials and references wherever needed to enable those who wish to advance to do so seamlessly.

Whether you are a beginner looking to get started in embedded systems or an experienced engineer looking for new ideas and inspiration, I hope you will find something of value in this series.

So let's get started!
