An introductory explanation of what a microcontroller is, its internal hardware components, and how it executes software.

This video explains what is a microcontroller, from what microcontroller consists and how it operates. This video is intended as an introductory video that briefly covers all the main parts that makes a microcontroller a microcontroller starting from hardware and ending with software. This should be a good video for those who maybe have some knowledge in electronics and microcontrollers, but they want to see how everything works together.

On “I am a Mechanical Engineer and I want to shift to automotive embedded software development. I need guidance please.”

In https://www.w3schools.com/cpp/ could be an option for starting. A YouTube playlist that can be helpfull: link to this video Some books: The C programming Language Second Edition by Kerninghan and Richie (1988) Programming in C by Byron Gottfried, Osborbe Mc Graw Hill, 1997. C by example by Greg M. Perry, Que Corporation, 1993 Web source: https://www.lysator.liu.se/c/ Edit: for electronics you usually dont see around in YT I recomend this guy: link to this video Also watch an intro to mcus like link to this video Or link to this video

Visual Crash Course: How Embedded Systems Work If you find the world of embedded systems confusing, like, what’s actually happening inside a microcontroller when your code runs? I always wanted to “see” what was happening and not just read slides, so here are the best visual resources I’ve found. These get down to the silicon, peripherals, buses, and even real hardware demos. **Start with these:** * A Beginner's Guide to Microcontrollers (2023) explains fundamentals with practical animations, connecting hardware and code.​ * How Microcontrollers Work: Engaging breakdown using analogies and visuals, including the internals, pipelines, and uses in everyday devices.​ * [What is a Microco…
