microcontroller-firmware

Embedded firmware development for microcontrollers including memory-mapped I/O, GPIO, interrupts, timers, UART/SPI/I2C serial protocols, PWM generation, ADC sampling, interrupt-driven versus polled architectures, RTOS fundamentals, and the bring-up sequence from power-on reset through first printf. Covers AVR/Arduino, ARM Cortex-M, and ESP32 patterns. Use when writing, porting, debugging, or reviewing firmware that directly manipulates hardware peripherals.
