Future Electronics, a global leader in electronic component distribution, is inviting engineers and embedded developers to an immersive, hands-on workshop focused on accelerating firmware development using AI-assisted tools and next-generation Microchip technology.<\/div>\n

Montreal, Canada – June 3, 2026 – <\/strong>Future Electronics, a global leader in electronic component distribution, is inviting engineers and embedded developers to an immersive, hands-on workshop focused on accelerating firmware development using AI-assisted tools and next-generation Microchip technology.<\/p>\n

The workshop, titled Develop Microchip MCUs with MPLAB® AI Coding Assistant for VS Code, will take place on June 2 in Milpitas, California, and June 4 in Irvine, California. The sessions are designed to provide practical, real-world experience building and optimizing firmware using modern AI-enhanced development workflows.<\/p>\n

Participants will work directly inside Visual Studio Code using Microchip’s latest toolchain, including the MPLAB AI Coding Assistant. Engineers will develop, test, and refine embedded applications on real hardware featuring a new ARM® Cortex-based microcontroller and the Curiosity Nano Explorer Board.<\/p>\n

Powered by Microchip Technology, the workshop highlights how AI-driven development is transforming embedded engineering by improving productivity, code quality, and time-to-market. Attendees will gain hands-on experience with workflows designed to streamline firmware creation and enhance debugging efficiency.<\/p>\n

The session will also introduce the evolving Curiosity Nano ecosystem and demonstrate how Microchip’s expanding software partnerships are shaping the future of embedded system design. Developers will gain insight into how these tools integrate into modern embedded roadmaps, particularly for ARM® Cortex-based MCU development.<\/p>\n

This is a live, hardware-driven coding experience where participants will actively build and iterate firmware using AI-assisted development tools in a guided lab environment.<\/p>\n

What attendees will learn<\/strong><\/p>\n

Participants will gain practical skills and insights, including how to:<\/strong><\/p>\n
