Fun & Easy Embedded Microcontroller Communication Protocols

Fun and Easy I2C - How I2C Protocol Works

This video gives you  an introduction on how I2c or the two wire interface works on a fundamental bit bang signal level. Watch this lecture if you want to understand how I2C works before you implement it on an Arduino.

Fun and Easy SPI How the SPI Protocol Works

This video teaches
you the basics of SPI or Serial Peripheral Interface Bus used to
communicate between two or more devices. If you are looking for an easy
way to understand how SPI works then this video tutorial will give you
insight into how to connect the Masters and Slave devices in normal mode
as well daisy chain configuration. There are also 4 mode to choose from
in SPI mode.

Here are links to learn the basics of SPI for Arduino and Code

Fun and Easy UART - How the UART Serial Communication Protocol Works

If you are using the Arduino Serial Comms but don't know how it works
then this video is for you. Serial communication uses a communication
protocol called UART which is an acronym for Universal Asynchronous
Receiver Transmitter. It is a simple standard that can communicate peer
to peer and even has a parity bit for error checking. All you need to do
is to ensure you have the correct UART settings on both your devices to
ensure that they work smoothly.

Modbus is a serial communications protocol originally published by Schneider Electric in 1979 for use with their programmable logic controllers or PLCs.  Modbus communication protocol  features are as follows:

    It has been developed with industrial applications in mind
    Openly published and royalty-free
    Easy development and maintenance

Modbus allows communication between many devices connected to the same network, for example a system that measures temperature and humidity and communicates the results to a computer. Many of the data types are named from its use in driving relays: a single-bit physical output is called a coil, and a single-bit physical input is called a discrete input or a contact.

This list includes some of the most common uses of the standard:

    Multiple master-slave applications
    Sensors and instruments
    Industrial networking
    Building and infrastructure
    Transportation and energy applications

This video tutorial teaches you the basics of the Modbus RTU protocol in a simple and easy to understand video.

A Controller Area Network (CAN bus) is a vehicle bus standard designed to allow microcontrollers and devices to communicate with each other in applications without a host computer.

This video explains the basics of the CAN BUS protocol in a fun and easy way.

Fun and easy PCIe - How the PCI Express protocol works

PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), officially abbreviated as PCIe, is a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard, designed to replace the older PCI, PCI-X, and AGP bus standards. PCIe has numerous improvements over the older standards, including higher maximum system bus throughput, lower I/O pin count and smaller physical footprint, better performance scaling for bus devices, a more detailed error detection and reporting mechanism (Advanced Error Reporting, AER), and native hot-plug functionality. More recent revisions of the PCIe standard provide hardware support for I/O virtualization.
