microcontroller for beginner

[sutan]

I am a beginner in the micro-controller. I have the old model of micro controllers HB2000w and drivers HM006, I tried to arrange them to drive the motor of the former disk drive motor, how to do this, help me please.
Thank you very much,
sutan

see this DC Motor interfacing with Microcontrollers tutorial: Introduction : 8051 Microcontroller Projects AVR PIC Projects Tutorials Ebooks Libraries codes
although it is for 8051 microcontroller but basic idea is same for all controllers,

take a look at MAZIDI for 8051...very good to begin microcontroller programming...and the interfacing is also given nicely..

Many thanks to all who have helped me. But the fundamental problem of how to understand hb2000w and AT89C51 I was still difficult. If running the LED lights go on as in the example on manual book, I can, but how to turn on for 1 minute, 10 minutes 1 hour can not.

Use timers to perform delay.

please give me a website with content of about timer. thank you very much

If possiable try to go for ARM7 as 8051 is getting outdated

Hi sultan,, i have just started mircocontrollers as well. 1 year ago i started 89C51. I did a course but 8951 was too difficult.
a month back i started PIC controller which are much easier. now get flying.. angy is right start PIC or AVR for the beggening...Google some tutorial. u will find some good one like Electronics Resource, Electronic Hobby Projects & Circuits, Mircrocontroller, Computer Based Project Circuit or Nigel's PIC Tutorial Page.. GO FOR IT!

I agree with angy and Chullaa that it is time to move away from out of date 8 bit microcontrollers (we dumped all our 8051 and PIC16/PIC18 teaching systems a couple of years ago)
for example, have a look at Microchip's microstick

it has an onboard USB programmer / debugger and has a header to enable one to plug it into your own breadboard for building you own circuits
the IDE and compiler etc is free for academic use

Hi,

If you need flexibility over selecting any uC or hardware/software for them, learn basics. Use of high-end product with full of new features for a simple task is not smart and resource wasting.

If you know the basics, you shouldn't wait until someone build development-boards or software libraries for you.(Definitely those who build these tools have thoroughly studied basics !!!)

There must be a reason why 8051s are still being manufactured even after 30 years from the date they first appear.

Thank you

use the delay routine in this way to produce large delays

void delay(unsigned x)
{
unsigned i,j;
for(i=0;i<x;i++)
for(j=0;j<1275;j++);
delay(500);
}
void main(void)
{
led=on;
delay(500);
led=off
}

it is a format but for accurate delays you need to calculate.

Anyone know how to load the program into ATtiny 2313 microcontroller its a SMD type?
