1 Introduction Recently, I’ve been working on my graduation project. The second board has arrived, and I’ve basically debugged all the components, with a few chips still having test code written for them. One of the chips is the BMP280 barometric sensor, which worked perfectly on the first board, so I can rule out issues … Read more
Today, I want to share some “unconventional” yet extremely useful tricks in embedded development that seasoned veterans rarely disclose! First Technique: Hardware Issues? Pass the Buck First!If you encounter a program crash, don’t rush to modify the code! First, check if the hardware layout matches the schematic. Our project was delayed last time because a … Read more
