Product development with MCUs

[sanket471]

I want to become a person who can develop MCU based products. How can I improve on my skill. How can i Achieve my goal? Eg. Currently I have been given AVAS system development task.

The best way to become better at something is to do that thing. If you already have a task to do, do that and you will become better over time.

As in Acoustic vehicle alerting system? That's a serious project to first start with! Automotive products have strict requirements.

Good. Writing embedded code that interacts with hardware is fun and challenging.

I don't know what your current skill level is. I don't know what your weaknesses are. You can learn by doing hobby projects and looking at examples. You can also take courses. Best is a combination of both.

I have a formal education where I learned to program MCUs and DSPs in assembly, C and C++. I learned about CPU architectures and about digital logic. In addition to electronic circuit design. While I learned more by doing my formal education provided a solid base.

Who gave you that task ?

Discuss with them your training & mentoring ...

@sanket471  Also, spend time studying that thing.

As @unsigned_char_array suggests, leaping straight into a major development with no experience or foundations is probably not a great approach.

Start simple with basics, and work up.

See here.

And a practical approach here.

Microcontroller development is at the intersection of two things:

1. Electronics
2. Software.

So you'll need to study & practise both.

Indeed!
