This course textbook teaches the fundamentals of electronic circuit design, circuit diagrams, microcontroller programming, and data acquisition to help bring your interesting research projects to life. Many functional example circuits and activities are provided, along with sample problem sets, design project guidance, and a final exam, enabling this course to be taught at the high school, undergraduate, or graduate level. Coding in C++ is taught from a beginner level for microcontroller programming using the Arduino Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Topics such as sensors, motors, relays, transistors, and common modules are introduced, with practical activities that complement your learning. The material is enriched with electronics history, real-world examples, engaging stories, practical tips, tables, figures, and many useful circuit diagrams. By building your own equipment, you gain practical skills, a deeper understanding, and customized tools tailored to your research.
