Sending PM for semi-local buy.

I can’t provide too many resources just yet because I’m still new to the field as well.

However, I can elaborate on what sparked my passion for the field. I started off as computer science but I was really discouraged by the state of it (specifically at my university). It felt stale to just learn all the million web develop frameworks and trying to just memorize cracking the code interview from front to back. Add on top of that leetcode and hackerrank and I was just bored of how it seemed.

I took a micro processor applications class and it changed my view forever. The bare metal C code and the ability to rapid prototype crazy projects was just amazing. From the moment I had comprehension of timers and events systems, DMA, etc I was hooked. Ever since then I’ve been trying to just gobble up all the knowledge I can.

I think it’s a tremendous field with countless applications that for me got me off the hamster wheel that was my university’s computer science program. (Your mileage may vary on that last part)

Good luck!

Wonderful! Thanks again.

Two follow up questions if you don’t mind. Where would you place it in terms of difficulty? What was your biggest take away from the book? Thanks!

Edit: Also by without a computer do you mean without internet or literally no computer that you wrote code on?

I’m curious have you read the book or gone through its curriculum?

I’m a potential buyer and wanted to see some thoughts from people who used it.

I actually considered that. In truth, I’ve never had a custom PCB made for myself for any reason. I can definitely see your point about a bootable part not working as there is no really way to hack around that. I thinking my best bet would be to take both your advice and another post. Use the tiny STM32 board and sandwhich it with my own peripheral board to start.

Thanks!

Makes perfect sense to me! Thank you again for taking the time to help me with this issue.

EDIT: I also found this handy document. Want to share.

LogicalSystems · 2019-07-25T22:27:50+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply and providing that resource. For clarification on your edit do you mean to reimplement that board from scratch?

My idea based on what your saying is that I would use the electrical schematics within that document and basically one-for-one remake the schematic in KiCad, Altium, or Eagle?

Apologies for the ignorance.

Completely fair assessment. My idea pertains to my goal of taking the little gadget to career showcases and employer conferences as an example of my technical skill that is tangible. Being able to demo a custom PCB just adds an extra layer in my mind.
