APPLICATION OF MICROCONTROLLER SYSTEMS IN RESEARCH (USING THE EXAMPLE OF THE ATWOOD MACHINE)
Microcontrollers today are an integral part of the vast majority of electronic equipment. Understanding the principles of their application is important for building modern control systems in all spheres of human life activity. One of these areas has become science, where microcontrollers are successfully used to conduct experiments. This article discusses the advantages of this approach and the general principles for the development of devices controlled by microcontrollers. The process of implementing an electronic control unit for an apparatus (Atwood machine) for laboratory work and a demonstration experiment in mechanics is demonstrated using the example of a microprocessor device with an STM32 microcontroller.
