Microcontroller sugestion
Microcontroller sugestion
(OP)
Hi .. I was looking for a microcontroller that have a easy programming board that I can made one (like PIC16f84) ...
Or if you have some simple ways tips... ideas..
Thanks.

What is the application? "
well.. for simple,general aplications,robotics,learning,...
"Lewish (Electrical)
This topic has been covered many times on Eng-tips. Do a search here "
Sorry.. but I make that and I can't find any thing... I try shearch with the site engine an nothing... I use google with the <text> site:www.eng-tips.com and I found some topics but.. nothing replys my question..
Thanks all.

When it is back up you should be able to find lots of suggestions.

Specs of the microcontroller:
CMOS 8 bit RISC
130 instructions
32 8 bit registers
16K flash memory
1K RAM memory
ADC 10 bits 8 channels
UART Serial interface
and some more stuff ....
u can check all the options for:
The STK500 card: http://www.atmel.com/atmel/acrobat/doc1925.pdf
The Microcontroller:

Another good thing about this microcontroller is that its the one used in the Satellite recievers from such companies as DIshnetwork DirectTV and other private broadcasters.
You can have some fun at decoding the micro from your sattelite receiver (i am not suggesting something illegal here ... :) )
The price for the whole kit turns around 100$. If u want a more conventional and easy to use microncontroller kit u can still use the PIC16F87XX series MPLAB debugger that comes with a C compiler. Its easy to use but the C compiler is far from friendly user.
check the Microchip website and search for MPLAB debugger
Have fun

Microship have a lot of different micros (all in flash) 16F870 it's easy to use and very cheap about EUR3/4.
If you need more power, you can think about SX20 (very like 16F84) that can reach 50 MIPS.
Another bood choice and very, very cheap its Motorola HC08 Nitron (about only EUR 1/2. A lot of Flash and Ram, very good, free demo board, and free MetroWerks C compiler.
For really powerfull Micro, use ARM7TDMI (one choice is Samsung S3F441FX) ....
Hope helps,

I will study that tips...
but...
when I said
"a easy programming board"
I mean.. a microcontroler that dont need 'expensive' 'programming boards kits'...
like as I said 16f84 that we can make our own programmer board...
any way...
Thanks all again for your replys

You can also use microC/OS-II for coding in C. What makes this compiler interesting is that it is compatible with almost all the Microcontrollers familys from almost all companies.
Good luck
