Hi,
I am an untainted newbie in the microcontroller world, altough a Programmer
and a student of electronic engineering. First I go to state that my target
isn't to have a solution as soon as possible but to learn alot about the
subject. So I want to layout and build my own board and not by a development
board. The Problem is there are thousands of Microcontrollers that do almost
the same - I need a quite univeral one, so I can use it for different
projects.
Requirements:
1.) it must be able to communicate with a RS232 interface
2.) I'd like to program it with standard C on my computer, thus i must be able
to load programs through a RS232/USB interface. I don't want to buy
programming hardware.
3.) It should be powerful enough to control a 4 line LCD. and have some input
pins for buttons.
4.) onchip RAM and FLASH for the program would be great.
Can you recommend me a chip or books where to start studying this subject. BTW
can you recommend me a distributor for chips and LCDs in Germany.
Thanks
Thomas
