This lesson explores the wide range of digital output devices and play technologies, each designed for particular applications, from basic bar LEDs to dynamic, full-colour displays.

Learn about the seven-segment displays' evolution and applications, covering common anode/cathode configurations and scanning techniques.

In this lesson, you will learn analog signals in embedded systems, their conversion to digital via ADCs, the maths behind it and put that into practice through a sensor exercise.

The Ohm's Law is a fundamental subject in electronics. To lay the foundation, this lesson covers the concepts of voltage, current and resistance before explaining their relationship.

This lesson covers voltage dividers. In it, you will learn Conservation of Charge, Kirchhoff's Laws, and design dividers, as well as their usage and limitations in embedded systems.

Explore the dynamic world of variable resistors, covering potentiometers, resistive sensors like thermistors and photoresistors, and their roles in electronic systems.

Discover ADC fundamentals, operation, types (Flash, SAR), key parameters (resolution, sampling frequency), ratiometric values, and application in embedded systems.

Processing signals is essential to handling signals in real embedded systems. This lesson will explore different methods of processing, dive into filtering and apply signal processing to real systems.

This lesson provides a deeper understanding of how interrupts function in embedded systems as well as how they can be used to process events.

Good design always precedes good implementation. In this lesson some fundamental guidelines of design will be discussed and applied to system and subsystem design.

This lesson discusses several different ways engineers commonly approach discovering and resolving issues in embedded systems, including LED debugging, logging, and the use of a debugger.
