micro controller project

hi,
i would like to start microcontroller related project. can any one guide me?

basically i am frm electronics background.
can any one suggest me good electronics projects?

micro controller project

what type of project you are looking. what controller tou planned to use
 

micro controller project

before doing the project you should learn the programming language 'C' (or assembly language is also enough). first choose the controller type..

Normally AT89s8252 can be used to do most of the projects and it is the one which is cheap and easily available
 

Re: micro controller project

I did a simple digital thermometer as my first 89C51 (Intel's 8051 architecture based - www.8052.com) microcontroller

It used:

1. LM35 temperature sensor (linear output) - VERY easy to use

2. ADC0804 for digital input to uC

3. LCD display.

So, you basically get a lot of practice doing just this simple project. It's better to do it in Assembly. You would need to learn only 10-12 instructions.


The best book for this is "THE 8051 MICROCONTROLLER - mazidi & mazidi"
 

Where to start a microcontroller project?

it usually starts with having a good idea of what you want to do with a mcu.
 

hi
see that link
**broken link removed**
 

develop using the PIC micro-controllers from Microchip (https://www.microchip.com/).

PICs are quite cheap, you can choose from 8 bit to 32 bit mcus.

The IDE and assembler can be freely downloaded from the microchip site. The assembler uses just 35 instructions, you can also buy a C compiler at a later stage.

Also there are thousands of PIC based projects that you can choose from in the internet.

thanks
a
