Microcontrollers have revolutionized the world of electronics and embedded systems. One of the most popular microcontrollers used in various applications is the PIC18F series from Microchip Technology. In this post, we'll dive into the theory and applications of microcontrollers with a focus on PIC18F.
A microcontroller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit (IC) that contains a processor, memory, and input/output (I/O) peripherals. It's essentially a mini-computer that can be programmed to perform specific tasks.
