Get Started With Embedded Systems - STM32 Nucleo Tutorial - ADC
In this video I show you how to setup an ADC on a STM32 Nucleo dev board, read in ADC counts, convert to voltage and print to the terminal. An example of a real life use case for this is when companies develop game controllers, the vast majority use a potentiometer which is basically how analog sticks work in a controller, the game controller has a microcontroller which can read the change in voltage, this is then sent to the games console/PC and is used to move your character.
When I started out I watched these tutorials to get an idea of what I was doing and they really helped me when I was starting out, 5 years into a career now I hope this video helps someone else who was in my position.
What would I say to my younger self?
Don't be afraid to google when figuring things out, don't worry about feeling like an imposter, and don't worry about asking too many questions!
