OK, you might laugh at me for this, but...
I am looking at building microcontrollers, doing simple stuff for now, like cutting power to another controller, or doing a PID controller on a servo.
I am thinking about using simulink and real-time workshop to do this. (this is the funny)
My question is, how do I integrate external input sensors and output actuators into simulink so that RTW-generated C code takes those inputs, runs them through my model/program and gives the desired outputs?
And on the power one, that seems pretty basic, user input says switch ->, switch is a power switch, cutting voltage to 0V on board needing to be powered off.
But my question still stands. I am trying to do stuff without learning C syntax, just reading the code, getting familiar (i am doing stuff on desktop as well), so when I take my microcontroller class, I have a leg up.
Thanks all!
