Hello everyone! I'm looking into maybe merging into different MCUs and maybe getting my feet a bit wet into 32bit architecture depending what brand I go with. Here is my background.
Strong knowledge of C/C++ language.
College Student (Low Income going into Electronics Technology)
Used PIC a little.
Good understanding of logic/passive circuits and MCUs.
So I'm basically looking for something that is inexpensive to start with. (Programmer, C compiler). TI has really caught my attention, but I've been having some problems trying to find a USB programmer for their MCUs. Atmel looks very beginner and student friendly and resources are easy to find and I'm willing to try something not too "mainstream" as long as there are good documentation.
