goodmorning!

i'm only a student that wants to take part on the world of embedded system.

what is the best thing to start of?

any suggestion?

thanks. i really want to learn

 

Like you I suppose, I have just recently started to play with microcontrollers, I quite like the arduino,
the programming language is simple enough for a newbie to understand and its open source so you can adapt the hardware to your needs,ideas.

 

Been there done that.

 

Hi,

You can start playing with Microcontroller first. and read books for programing.

 

Hello,

There are a lot of programmable chips.
Perhaps take a look at these pages of the EDUCYPEDIA for orientation:
AVR Resources
Basic stamp
FPGA Design
PIC'S
PIC software
Programmable logic
VHDL

May be you can start simple here:

and the tutorial softwares for the hardwares are here

The extra thing you need to buy is a PICKIT 2 or 3 for programming the PIC chips. If you prefer, you can make your own programmer from the same website.

Also have a look at the PICAXE range at www.picaxeforum.co.uk

i've bought an arduino haha..
i played with it but do you have any suggestion on what can i do with it that i may seem to be a little difficult.. i browsed some arduino sites and this is cool

 

Since you've made you choice, so just go ahead with it. Ask any questions related to your problems and we'll try to help.

You can also bring your problems to the arduino forum here:

Once you've become more familiar with the AVR, it would be easier for you to learn other mcu if you want to then.
