Hello,
What would you all recommend for a beginner looking to get into embedded systems programming for somebody with Ix86 Assembly and C experience, but relatively no experience in electronics?
The two most popular I've heard of are the Atmel (Atmega RISC based processors) as well as the various PIC line of microcontrollers.
I'm looking for something capable of dealing with analog signals from various devices (such as an ultrasonic range finder), as well as PWM's to control servos. I2C isn't really necessary, but I wouldn't turn a processor down just because it's there. I also have no preferences between the Harvard and von Neumann architectures. I'd really prefer to stay away from BASIC in general in favor of developing code in either Assembly, C, or a combination of the two.
What do you recommend?
Thank you,
-- Sean .
