Embedded MicroPython from Ground Up™

Develop Embedded Drivers and Firmware using the Python Programming Language

10+ hours | Complete Source Code Included

Whether you are new to Python programming or not you need to take a look at this course as an embedded developer.

Do you want to know how to write clean and efficient embedded drivers for stm32 microcontrollers using the python programming language?

If so, then welcome to Embedded MicroPython from Ground Up™

MicroPython is an efficient implementation of Python3 optimised to run on microcontrollers.

Now, why should you ....

Learn MicroPython as an embedded systems developer?

1. The simplicity of the python programming language makes micropython very easy to learn.
2. It is very easy to use, and allows you to develop complex firmware and drivers in python with few lines of code.
3. It has an extensive software library which you can import into your project to build very complex solutions. E.g. network socket programming
4. It is extensible with C/C++ and assembly, so you can mix assembly and c with micropython to improve code efficiency or simply implement routines that you are more comfortable implementing in low-level code.

So with that understood, let me tell you…

Exactly What You’re Getting

This course can be divided into 3 major sections.

First Section

The first section provides practical python essential training for embedded developers. This section is for developers who are not familiar with the python programming language and those who want to brush up on their python development skills. This is required because we need to know who to write python code before we can develop our firmware and drivers in python.

Second Section

The second section deals peripheral driver development. Over here we shall develop drivers for all the standard peripherals of our STM32 microconctoller.

We shall develop the following drivers:

1. General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)Drivers
2. Power Management Drivers
3. General Purpose Timer Drivers
4. Timer Output Compare Driver
5. Timer Input Capture Driver
6. PWM Timer Driver
7. RealTime Clock (RTC) Drivers
8. A Watchdog Timer (WDG) Drivers
9. Analog-to-Digital Converter(ADC) Drivers
10. Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) Time Triggered Drivers
11. Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) Drivers
12. Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) Drivers
13. Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Drivers
14. Inter -Integrated Circuit (I2C) Drivers

Last Section

In the final section we shall develop firmware for addressing advanced topics such as:

Adding Assembly Language Code to MicroPython
 Adding C Language Code to MicroPython

Please take a look at the full course curriculum. I hope to see you in the course.

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 75,000 students in embedded

firmware development online till date

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

If you have taken any of my 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.

Our courses have been reviewed by 1000+ students
