software for development board

[Atul Mishra]

Hi everyone I want to make a development board can you suggest me software for its schematic design also since I am a beginner I didn't know which software to used for programing and how to burn it on the board. I am thinking of using avr board.
Thanks in advance

if you do a web search for avr micro build or simlar you will get plenty of links, e.g.
https://www.robotplatform.com/howto/dev_board/atmega8_dev_board_1.html

are you planning to use a breadboard or make your own PCB?

Make my Own PCB and I the search the web for avr board but kindly someone reply to my query.

You might want to start by learning about specific microcontrollers that are out there and determining which ones fit your needs, lots of companies make microcontroller AVR, PIC, MSP430, STMicro. I would also get an existing development board an try to program a microcontroller first. The MSP430 launchpad boards are very low cost <$20, and they have all the parts you need to program the processor:

For PCB design you might want to check out Eagle PCB, they have a low cost and free versions for small projects.
