Unlike higher-level computing (like Python on a Raspberry Pi), ARM microcontroller programming requires a precise understanding of memory mapping, clock trees, and peripheral control registers. typically focuses on the "Zero to Hero" pathway. Most editions of this curriculum target entry-level 32-bit ARM Cortex-M processors, such as the STM32F103 series (the famous "Blue Pill" board) or the NXP LPC series.
Intrigued, Alex decided to embark on a journey to learn more about ARM microcontrollers and circuit building. The goal was to design and build a simple robot using an ARM microcontroller.
