EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a non-volatile memory type found on most Arduino boards. It allows you to store data even when the power is disconnected, making it suitable for settings, calibration values, or other data that needs to be retained. Here’s a guide on how to use it: Understanding EEPROM Non-Volatile: Data persists even after power off. Limited Writes: EEPROM has…

Micropython Concurrency: Mastering Timers and Interrupts Concurrency in Micropython, especially on resource-constrained microcontrollers, can be a powerful tool. While true threading isn’t directly supported, Micropython offers clever alternatives: Timers and Interrupts. Let’s explore how to leverage them effectively. Understanding the Basics Timers: Think of timers as scheduled events. You program them to trigger a function call after a specific time interval or at a…
