Die Programmiersprache „Python“ hat in den letzten Jahren einen enormen Aufschwung erlebt. Nicht zuletzt haben verschiedene Einplatinensysteme wie der Raspberry Pi zu deren Bekanntheitsgrad beigetragen. Aber auch in anderen Gebieten, wie der Künstlichen Intelligenz oder dem Machine Learning, hat Python weite Verbreitung gefunden. Es ist daher naheliegend, Python bzw. die Variante „MicroPython“ auch für den Einsatz in SoCs (Systems on Chip) zu verwenden.
Leistungsfähige Controller wie der ESP32 der Firma Espressif Systems bieten eine hervorragende Performance sowie Wi-Fi- und Bluetooth-Funktionalität zu einem günstigen Preis. Mit diesen Eigenschaften wurde die Maker-Szene im Sturm erobert. Im Vergleich zu anderen Controllern weist der ESP32 einen deutlich größeren Flash und SRAM-Speicher, sowie eine wesentlich höhere CPU-Geschwindigkeit auf. Aufgrund dieser Leistungsmerkmale eignet sich der Chip nicht nur für klassische C-Anwendungen, sondern insbesondere auch für die Programmierung mit MicroPython.
Das vorliegende Buch führt in die Anwendung der modernen Ein-Chip-Systeme ein. Neben den technischen Hintergründen steht vor allem MicroPython selbst im Vordergrund. Nach der Einführung in die Sprache werden die erlernten Programmierkenntnisse umgehend in die Praxis umgesetzt. Die einzelnen Projekte sind sowohl für den Einsatz im Labor als auch für Alltagsanwendungen geeignet. Neben dem eigentlichen Lerneffekt steht also auch die Freude am Aufbau kompletter und nützlicher Geräte im Vordergrund. Durch die Verwendung von Laborsteckboards können Schaltungen aller Art mit geringem Aufwand realisiert werden, sodass das Austesten der selbstgebauten Geräte zum lehrreichen Vergnügen wird.
Durch die verschiedenen Anwendungen wie Wetterstationen, Digitalvoltmeter, Ultraschall-Entfernungsmesser, RFID-Kartenleser oder Funktionsgeneratoren sind die vorgestellten Projekte auch für Praktika oder Fach- und Studienarbeiten in den Naturwissenschaften bzw. im Natur- und Technikunterricht bestens geeignet.

FLUX Beamo is a powerful and compact 30 W CO2 desktop laser cutter that can cut and engrave a range of materials including metals. With its easy-to-use design, intuitive controls and features, you can effortlessly create amazing things.
Built-in HD camera
Cutting and engraving is hassle-free with our preview mode. Place your material, preview the work area in the Beam Studio software and engrave. Your design comes out exactly as shown in the preview.
Integrated safety features
If left opened, auto pause ensures the laser stops. The internal water cooling system provides a stable cutting process. Plus, you can stop production with a single switch at any time.
Powerful high resolution laser
The Beamo ultra thin laser can engrave exceptional detail down to 0.05 mm wide with a clear resolution of 1,000 dpi. Fitting for any craft or small business project.
The most precise compact CO2 laser engraver
Beamo's sleek, modern and compact design fits beautifully in any home, school or workshop space. It comes pre-assembled with a metal body and acrylic lid, measuring 615 x 445 x 177 mm. Bring your designs to life with its 30 W CO2 laser operating on a 30 x 21 cm work area.
Safe for home and school
Beamo prioritises safety with its thoughtful design features. The machine is fully enclosed, and it automatically pauses if the lid is opened during a task. Additionally, there is a single switch for immediate machine shutdown in case of emergencies. Beamo is equipped with a Class 1 laser, which is completely safe under normal use.

ARM Cortex-M Embedded Design from 0 to 1
Hobbyists can mash together amazing functional systems using platforms like Arduino or Raspberry Pi, but it is imperative that engineers and product designers understand the foundational knowledge of embedded design. There are very few resources available that describe the thinking, strategies, and processes to take an idea through hardware design and low-level driver development, and successfully build a complete embedded system. Many engineers end up learning the hard way, or never really learn at all.
ARM processors are essentially ubiquitous in embedded systems. Design engineers building novel devices must understand the fundamentals of these systems and be able to break down large, complicated ideas into manageable pieces. Successful product development means traversing a huge amount of documentation to understand how to accomplish what you need, then put everything together to create a robust system that will reliably operate and be maintainable for years to come.
This book is a case study in embedded design including discussion of the hardware, processor initialization, low‑level driver development, and application interface design for a product. Though we describe this through a specific application of a Cortex-M3 development board, our mission is to help the reader build foundational skills critical to being an excellent product developer. The completed development board is available to maximize the impact of this book, and the working platform that you create can then be used as a base for further development and learning.
The Embedded in Embedded program is about teaching fundamental skill sets to help engineers build a solid foundation of knowledge that can be applied in any design environment. With nearly 20 years of experience in the industry, the author communicates the critical skill development that is demanded by companies and essential to successful design. This book is as much about building a great design process, critical thinking, and even social considerations important to developers as it is about technical hardware and firmware design.
