Diagnose resets, power faults, communication failures, watchdogs, and recovery to build robust embedded systems.

What you'll learn
Diagnose unexpected Arduino and ESP32 resets by separating brownouts, watchdog events, software faults, external resets, and intentional restarts.
Investigate brownouts, load transients, power-path impedance, regulators, decoupling, grounding, and inductive-load disturbances using evidence, not guesswork.
Debug I2C, SPI, UART, and Wi-Fi failures from the physical layer upward using wiring, waveform, configuration, driver-status, timeout, and protocol evidence.
Design non-blocking communication and reconnect behavior using explicit states, bounded timeouts, retries, backoff, queue policies, and recovery validation.
Identify firmware reliability problems from blocking code, memory pressure, stack limits, buffer and queue overflow, long-running behavior, and timing chains.
Recognize race conditions, inconsistent snapshots, lost updates, ISR/task sharing issues, and shared-peripheral ownership problems.
Design watchdog supervision around meaningful system progress instead of blindly feeding the watchdog on a timer.
Build layered recovery strategies using retry, reinitialization, subsystem reset, degraded mode, safe state, and controlled system reset.
Add observability through structured events, reset reasons, error counters, health metrics, last-event recording, and persistent fault context.
Build a repeatable fault-injection and long-duration reliability test plan and issue an evidence-based PASS, CONDITIONAL PASS, or BLOCK engineering verdict.

Requirements
Basic Arduino-style C/C++ or embedded C/C++ programming experience.
Experience building at least one project with Arduino, ESP32, STM32, PIC, Raspberry Pi Pico, or another microcontroller platform.
Basic electronics knowledge such as voltage, current, digital I/O, sensors, and serial communication.
No formal reliability-engineering background is required.
Hardware is useful for the practical exercises but is not mandatory for understanding the engineering methods. An ESP32 or Arduino-compatible board, common sensors, a relay module, and a multimeter are helpful. An oscilloscope or logic analyzer is optional.

Description
This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

A project that works for five minutes on your desk is not automatically a reliable embedded system.

Real products experience voltage dips, Wi-Fi outages, stuck communication buses, stale sensor data, blocking code, queue pressure, memory problems, race conditions, watchdog resets, corrupted configuration, and failures that appear only after hours or days of operation.

This course teaches you how to design for those situations deliberately.

Instead of treating reliability as a vague idea, you will learn a practical engineering workflow for defining failure behavior, collecting evidence, finding root causes, containing faults, recovering the smallest failed subsystem, and proving that the fix actually works.

Throughout the course, you will follow one recurring ESP32-based Industrial Equipment Reliability Monitor. The system reads sensors, controls an output, raises local alarms, stores events, communicates over Wi-Fi, and gradually encounters realistic reliability problems. You will investigate the same kinds of failures that make real Arduino and ESP32 projects frustrating in the field.

You will learn how to distinguish a brownout from a software crash, measure fast power transients correctly, debug I2C, SPI, and UART from the wire upward, design non-blocking Wi-Fi recovery, manage timeouts and retries, detect memory and stack problems, control queue overflow, prevent race conditions, design meaningful watchdog supervision, build safe and degraded modes, preserve failure evidence across resets, and create fault-injection tests that deliberately challenge your system.

The course is built around engineering decisions, not memorizing library functions. You will repeatedly answer questions such as: What can fail? How will I detect it? What must keep working? What is the smallest useful recovery? What evidence proves recovery succeeded?

By the final reliability lab, you will combine everything into a Reliability Engineering Dossier and make an evidence-based PASS, CONDITIONAL PASS, or BLOCK decision for the system.

This course is designed for learners who already know how to build microcontroller projects and now want to make those projects robust enough to trust.

Who this course is for
Arduino and ESP32 makers whose projects work on the bench but become unreliable during long-running or real-world operation.
Engineering students and junior embedded developers who want to move from project building into professional failure-aware firmware and hardware design.
Developers dealing with random resets, brownouts, stuck buses, Wi-Fi reconnect problems, stale sensor data, watchdog loops, queue overflow, or intermittent bugs.
Embedded, mechatronics, electronics, and IoT engineers who want a practical method for diagnosing and recovering from faults.
Learners who already know how to make a microcontroller project work and now want to make it robust, observable, recoverable, and testable.
