Introduction to Microcontrollers

Did you know that tiny computers are present in your toys, remote controls, machines and car engines? They are microcontrollers, that run on the same principle as larger computers. Though they are tiny, they are capable of performing critical functions in aircraft, spacecraft, ocean-going vessels, vehicles, medical and life-support systems as well as in robots. They are typically the heart of most embedded systems, making certain functions easier and faster to perform. This course will take you through the basics of microcontrollers.
