best embedded system


goood,
I hope u r knowing about 8051 controller. It will be easy if you will do something based on 8051 controller. Different things that you can try are
1. Interfacing with memory
2. External Interrupt handling
3. Interfacing keyboard, Display, Stepper motor switches etc.
4. Communication wih Computer thro serial RS432 or bluetooth module or infrared comminication.
For this u may use MATLAB or Labview in your PC.
these are some basic task to give complete feel of Embedded Environment. Thats what i feel.
Best of luck

how to learn embedded systems


it will be good for u to learn the PIC controller as well

search the google and u can find good books about PIC controller
start from teh 16 series

basic requirements to learn embedded


Go ahead with PIC microcontrollers, easy to learn and plenty of resources available.
you can start with PIC16F or PIC18F families of microcontrollers, you will need a compiler, you have the option to develop in C, BASIC or assembly.
Software requirements:
MikroC is a C compiler targeting PIC microcontrollers, i recommend especially for beginners, demo version available on the internet.
Also you can try MPLAB C18 from microchip, academic version is free.
also there is MikroBASIC, BASIC compiler for PIC.
and there is MikroPascal but i don't know much about it.
Hardware requirements:
you can buy a microcontroller like PIC16F877 or PIC18F452 and start with it.
also you will need the device that program the PIC, its called programmer, there is another device called debbuger/programmer, this type of devices perform programming and debugging your embedded microcontroller, for PIC microcontroller you can use PICkit2 programmer/debugger, its only for 35$ i think.

good luck

You can also try PIC16F series microcontrollers. I have just started working on them. See http://pic16f628a.blogspot.com

Re: the best Embedded Systems to learn for....


the best way to enter is start with 8051 book by mazidi. learn about basics of micro controller,

Then after understanding the concepts of 8 bit start with 32bit ARM, there no need to study any 16 bit stuff.

in ARM start with ARM7 get a board the ARM 9 let me know if you need any further help

also start with Linux operating systems simultaneously

you can start with RED hat or fedora. But fedora is more better option. There are many books available to begin with Linux.
You can check here : http://www.linux.ie/newusers/beginners-linux-guide/

beside that you can try "Introduction to Linux – A Beginners Guide" by Kapil Sharma.

I think you should also consider devices with dedicated embedded Linux. Visit www.gprs-controllers.com . You can see there interesting examples of devices and applications.
