Vom Messwert zur stabilen Entscheidung Wie wird aus einem einfachen Mikrocontroller ein intelligentes System, das Sensorwerte erfasst, verarbeitet und sinnvoll darauf reagiert? Dieses Buch zeigt es Ihnen Schritt für Schritt – verständlich, praxisnah und ohne unnötige Vorkenntnisse. Sie beginnen mit den Grundlagen der digitalen und analogen Ein- und Ausgänge. Anschließend lernen Sie, wie Sensorwerte gelesen, geglättet und zuverlässig bewertet werden. Anschauliche Beispiele erklären, warum einzelne Messwerte oft täuschen können und wie Mittelwertbildung, Hysterese und einfache Entscheidungsregeln für stabile Ergebnisse sorgen. Nach und nach erweitern Sie Ihre Projekte um Displays, I²C-Kommunikation und mehrere vernetzte Mikrocontroller. So entstehen verteilte Systeme, in denen Raspberry Pi Pico und ATtiny-Controller Daten austauschen und gemeinsam Aufgaben übernehmen. Im fortgeschrittenen Teil erhalten Sie einen leicht verständlichen Einstieg in Merkmalsbildung, Datenvorverarbeitung, hybride Entscheidungsmodelle und TinyML-nahe Anwendungen. Dabei verbinden Sie klassische Regelungstechnik mit modernen datenbasierten Methoden. Alle Projekte werden von ausführlich kommentierten Programmen in C und MicroPython begleitet. Das Buch richtet sich an Einsteiger, Maker, Studierende und alle, die Embedded-Systeme von Grund auf verstehen möchten. Am Ende können Sie eigene Systeme entwickeln, die nicht nur messen, sondern Informationen auswerten, zuverlässige Entscheidungen treffen und gezielt reagieren.

A Combat Guide against E-waste and Throwawayism This book is for anyone who enjoys tinkering with analog and digital hardware electronics. Regardless of the sophistication of your workspace, only basic tools are required to achieve truly satisfying results. It is intended as a reference guide among other hardware repair publications you may have in your library. However, the book goes a step further than most other repair guides in addressing issues in the modern era of discarded electronics called e-waste. E-waste should be put to good use. Producing anything new requires not just precious resources and labor, but also energy to make and deliver it to global retail shelves. Your talents and love of electronics can be put to good use by rescuing and resurrecting at least selected units from this endless stream of e-waste. Examples include either restoring through repair, or salvaging reusable electronic and mechanical components for your next project. Smart tips are provided throughout the book, and much information is tabulated for easy reference. The book expands age-old repair and hacking techniques applied for repair on the workbench into clever methods and applications to achieve effective results with discarded or “non-servicable” electronic consumer products. The final chapter provides real-life examples using all of the previously discussed content in a summarized form for each example repair type.

U kunt dit boek gebruiken om de verschillende projecten na te bouwen en daarna in de praktijk te brengen. Door de duidelijke uitleg, schema's en zelfs foto's van de opstelling is het nabouwen een leuke bezigheid. Bij ieder project wordt uitgelegd waarom het juist op die manier is uitgevoerd, en wordt kort de theorie behandeld. U kunt dit boek dus gebruiken als studieboek, of als basis voor grotere en ingewikkeldere projecten. Alle schakelingen zijn op een steekbord uitgevoerd zodat uitbreiden en aanpassen gemakkelijk is. De drie PIC microcontrollers die in dit boek gebruikt worden, zijn de 16f877A, 18f4455 en 18f4685. Daarnaast komt aan de orde hoe u de programma's van de ene naar de andere microcontroller kunt overzetten (er worden 15 types ondersteund) inclusief twee praktijkvoorbeelden. Alle benodigde software kunt u gratis downloaden. Dat geldt ook voor de open source programmeertaal JAL. Deze krachtige maar toch eenvoudig te leren taal wordt zowel door hobbyisten als professionals gebruikt. Dit boek is ook goed te gebruiken als naslagwerk. U kunt er de uitleg van alle opdrachten van de programmeertaal JAL in terugvinden, en tevens van de gebruikte uitbreidingsbibliotheken. Via de index vindt u gemakkelijk projecten die als voorbeeld kunnen dienen voor de belangrijkste JAL opdrachten. Zelfs wanneer u alle projecten een keer gemaakt hebt, zal dit boek nog lang een plekje naast uw PC behouden.
