Presentation

Description

Small microcontroller boards offer amateur radio operators an accessible and versatile foundation for building custom projects. This presentation focuses on compact microcontroller platforms like Arduino, ESP32, and similar single-chip solutions. We'll cover the practical aspects of integrating these smaller microcontrollers into ham radio applications, including how to select the right board for your project based on processing requirements, memory needs, and I/O capabilities. We'll demonstrate hands-on techniques for interfacing with common controls and displays, and walk through the essential programming concepts needed to bring your projects to life.
