Hi edaboard, I am planning to build another application but this time it is a bigger one. I'm having problems about choosing the microcontroller that could/must be used. I'll be controlling 20 LEDs, 1 LCD display and 20 push buttons. ROM, RAM and processor speed here is critical so I'll choose the highest one. I have PICKIT3 with me and MPLAB. 40 pin microcontroller is not enough considering the use of multiplexing so my next resort is a microcontroller which has higher pin counts. I just don't know if I have to use dspic's, pic24's or pic30's. Any microcontroller suggestion that is easy to start with and typically used one? Btw, my previous microcontroller was a PIC18. I already thought of using two PIC18 but I think it would consume much processing time making the application slow. I've used the PIC18 for already a year so I want this time to explore another PIC family.
