Integrating Touch Screen with STM32F407 and LVGL

So far, the project has integrated LVGL with STM32F407 and also supports touch screens using STM32F407 + SPI for resistive touch screens. Therefore, integrating the touch screen with LVGL is a natural progression. You can refer to the official documentation at https://docs.lvgl.io/master/details/main-modules/indev/overview.html#indev-creation. It is simpler to refer to an official example template, especially for touch … Read more

Understanding PLCs: The Brain and Its Peripheral Devices

Understanding PLCs: The Brain and Its Peripheral Devices

Learning about PLCs is not enough if you only understand the PLC itself. The PLC is the “brain,” while the peripheral devices are its “eyes, ears, hands, and feet.” A qualified automation engineer must be proficient in how these peripheral devices work in conjunction with the PLC. Below are the core peripheral devices that one … Read more
