Setup Micropython for ESP32: ESP32 is a low cost microcontroller that comes with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity interfaces. We can develop programs for ESP32 using Arduino and ESP-IDF frameworks. We have explained how to develop a simple LED blink program using ESP-IDF in our previous blog https://c2plabs.com/blog/2021/12/31/esp32-led-blink-tutorial-using-esp-idf-freertos-framework/. In addition to these frameworks ESP32 also supports […]
Raspberry pi pico board which is based on rp2040 microcontroller is very good option to learn python programming for kids using micropython. This board comes with all the required peripherals like UARTS, I2C and SPI masters etc, but this doesn’t have connectivity module (No WIFI or Bluetooth). In this article we will show how to […]
In the article I will show how to control DC motor using TB6612FNG H-bridge motor controller. This is a two channel motor driver small in size and doesn’t need heat sink . TB6612 has different voltage input pins for motor and logic. VM (motor voltage can be up to 15 V and Logic voltage can […]
In this blog post we will discuss about writing simple led blink program for raspberry pi pico (rp2040) board using micropython. This article give details about raspberry pi pico board, its pinout and how to use micropython for this board. Raspberry pi pico is low cost microcontroller board based on RP2040 microcontroller. This microcontroller is […]
When we were looking for a microcontroller board that can run micropython, we came across pyboard, micro:bit and esp32 etc. Considering the factors like quick sourcing from India, different sensors and community support we bought BBC micro:bit. The hardware specifications of micro:bit can be found at https://tech.microbit.org/hardware/ . This is small pocket sized board designed […]
The use of C/C++ programming language for controlling hardware, development of system software is common practice over the years. Now due to wide acceptance of Python as common language for AI and machine learning domains, the popularity of python has increased tremendously. With increased popularity and user base hardware platforms like Raspberry Pi started giving […]
