Hands-On PCB Design for Firmware Developers

Navigating the Intricacies of the Controller Area Network(CAN)

You already know how to develop firmware for STM32 microcontrollers. However, you remain confined to the development board.

Have you ever imagined designing and printing your own Printed Circuit Board (PCB) from scratch, then writing your firmware and flashing it onto the board?

This course empowers you ...

...to bring your physical ideas to life, from designing circuit boards that incorporate all essential components—including your MCU chip, oscillator, and USB interfaces—to having your PCB printed and delivered.

Course Objectives

PCB Design

You already excel in microcontroller programming; now expand your expertise to include designing custom, multi-layer PCBs with an array of components.

From Concept to Creation

You've relied on pre-made boards; now learn to design one similar to the STM32 development boards, but with additional features like wireless radios and accelerometers.

Comprehensive Firmware Development

You already write firmware code; now flash it into your custom hardware for a seamless integration.

From selecting the right components using platforms like Mouser or DigiKey, through mastering schematic capture and complex PCB layout, you will manage every critical phase of the hardware development process.

Some Key Areas Covered:

You already know the impact; STM32 microcontrollers are pivotal in many popular hardware products like Google Pixel smartphones and Apple TV, highlighting the practical importance of these skills.

A little about me : Israel Ninsaw Gbati

Some of you may have taken some of my embedded systems courses from other online platforms.

This is my private channel.

I have been writing embedded firmware for years, I have built embedded devices like consumer products and robotic arms.

Till date I have

trained over 100,000 students in embedded

firmware development online till date

...including third year undergraduate university students in-person.

If you have taken any of our courses before you will know I start from the absolute basics, I do not assume that the student has any prior knowledge of the topic under discussion. You will also know that by the end of the course you understand the functions of every register used in developing the particular firmware or driver.

This method is the same for all of my published embedded systems courses.
