Course Overview

The Microchip IoT Programming Foundations course by Open Source provides a comprehensive introduction to embedded IoT development using Microchip’s hardware and open-source software ecosystems. Designed for firmware engineers, embedded systems developers, and IoT solution architects, this program covers core concepts such as TCP/IP networking, MQTT messaging, device provisioning, and cloud integration. Learners gain foundational skills in connecting microcontroller-based devices to cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure IoT Central, with emphasis on real-time data telemetry and secure communication. According to industry reports, over 70% of industrial IoT deployments now rely on open-source toolchains, underscoring the growing demand for developers proficient in vendor-agnostic, standards-based development environments.

Students engage with key technologies including MPLAB X IDE, MPLAB Harmony v3, MQTT, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules (WIxCS02 and RNBD), and cloud dashboards via Azure IoT Central. The hands-on lab environment centers on the SAM9X75 Curiosity Wireless Kit and SAM-IoT WG development board, where learners build a fully functional IoT thermostat application. Through structured labs, participants configure sensor integrations, establish wireless connectivity, implement GUI controls using Embedded Wizard, and publish telemetry data to cloud brokers. A capstone project involves creating an outdoor environmental sensor node that collects temperature, humidity, and pressure data, then visualizes it in real time using a custom dashboard—mirroring real-world smart building and industrial monitoring applications.

This training prepares candidates for professional recognition in open-source embedded development, aligning with certifications such as the Linux Foundation’s Certified Open Source Developer for Enterprise (CODE). Graduates report average salary increases of 20–30% when transitioning into IoT-focused roles, with mid-level IoT firmware engineers earning between $110,000 and $140,000 annually. Koenig Solutions enhances learning with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official Microchip courseware, and access to live lab environments, ensuring hands-on mastery. Upon completion, learners are equipped to design, deploy, and manage secure, connected IoT systems—positioning them for advanced roles in smart manufacturing, edge computing, and scalable IoT architecture design.
