Not all microcontroller debugging tools are created equal. Some offer more features, such as breakpoints, watchpoints, trace, and memory access, while others are more limited. Depending on your ...

Microchip Technology has introduced the MPLAB PICkit Basic, an affordable and versatile in-circuit debugger designed to simplify programming and debugging for engineers, hobbyists, and students. The ...

A debugger is a software tool that allows you to monitor and control the execution of your code, inspect and modify variables, set breakpoints, and trace the program flow. A debugger can be integrated ...

Got a microcontroller but no debugger? Or possibly a microcontroller that doesn't support a debugger? Then these tips are for you! Got a microcontroller but no debugger? Or possibly a microcontroller ...

The microcontroller (MCU) is a brilliant invention, but it can be truly frustrating when it doesn’t function as expected. Most issues can be traced back to one of two things: a failure to understand a ...

Debugging a circuit on a hardware level is always challenging, especially when coding is involved. It would always make the debugging easier if there were a way to monitor the MCU live. Are you ...

Not [Wayne Holder], that’s for sure. He writes in to let us know about a project he’s been working on for a while that allows you to debug the execution of code on an Arduino with a second Arduino. In ...

If you develop an application on a small microcontroller, your diagnostic tools for debugging of the program code might be very limited. This Design Idea introduces a simple debugging routine for ...

We’ve all been there. When debugging a microcontroller project, we just want to put in a print statement to figure out what’s going on with the microcontroller in real time. However, advanced embedded ...
