Overview

Are you ready to move beyond basic microcontroller tutorials and start building real-world, real-time embedded systems with confidence? Hands-On Embedded Systems with STM32 and FreeRTOS is a practical, project-driven guide designed to help you understand how modern embedded firmware actually works-from the hardware level up to real-time multitasking with FreeRTOS. This book focuses on doing, debugging, and problem-solving, not just theory. Whether you are a beginner looking to build a strong foundation or an intermediate developer aiming to master real-time behavior, this book walks you through embedded systems concepts step by step, using STM32 microcontrollers as the primary platform. What You'll Learn ✔ What truly defines an embedded system-and how real-time behavior affects firmware design ✔ How STM32 microcontrollers work, including core architecture, memory, clocks, and peripherals ✔ How to design and debug bare-metal firmware before introducing an RTOS ✔ When and why to use FreeRTOS instead of bare-metal code ✔ How FreeRTOS tasks, queues, semaphores, and timers work in real STM32 projects ✔ How to identify and fix common embedded problems like timing bugs, race conditions, and interrupt conflicts ✔ How to structure firmware for clarity, scalability, and maintainability Why This Book Is Different Unlike books that focus only on theory or isolated code snippets, this guide emphasizes hands-on learning with practical examples. You'll see how embedded systems behave in real situations, why things go wrong, and how to fix them. Instead of treating FreeRTOS as a ""black box,"" this book explains how real-time scheduling, synchronization, and timing actually work-so you can design systems that are reliable, predictable, and easier to debug. Who This Book Is For Engineering students learning embedded systems Self-taught developers building STM32-based projects Firmware engineers transitioning from bare-metal to RTOS-based designs Makers and professionals who want a deeper understanding of real-time embedded systems A basic understanding of C programming is recommended, but no prior RTOS experience is required. What You'll Gain By the end of this book, you'll have the confidence to: Build embedded firmware that behaves predictably under real-time constraints Decide when bare-metal is sufficient and when an RTOS is the better choice Debug complex timing and concurrency issues instead of guessing Apply STM32 and FreeRTOS skills to real projects and professional environments Build Real Skills for Real Embedded Systems If you want to move beyond blinking LEDs and start designing firmware that reflects how embedded systems are built in the real world, Hands-On Embedded Systems with STM32 and FreeRTOS gives you the practical guidance and structured learning path to get there.
