I need some input on what the best microcontroller (relatively cheap) and OS to use for a project I will be starting soon. The project requires a Ethernet connection, so an on-board MAC is desirable. A real time clock and several timers will be required. The MCU will need to interface with a RC5 encoder for IR control of devices (and possible RF communication as well). On the software si...


PIC migration timing problem

Hi, can anyone advise please? I've migrated code running on a PIC16C54 to a PIC18F1320. Both use an external RC network. On the OSC2 pin both processors show a nice clock at 25 KHz (which is correct). However, the 18F1320 seems to be executing code at twice the speed! Have I overlooked something? Thanks in advance for any help? Simon

Hi all, I am still relative new to low-level programming microcontrollers, currently doing some work on a STM32F103RB using forth. To get to know the device, I am now trying out some code to change the clock from internal8Mhz, to External48Mhz and External72Mhz. There are two things I do not really understand. 1/ What exactly is the purpose of the Flash Latency? You need to chang...

I just received some samples of the LPC903 the other day and it hit me. Where is the specification for the ICP? I know it only needs clock,data,reset but I can't any find a document that describes the timing and format for that section.

Hi all, I'm really losing my mind now, been fighting with this for 8 days now, I give up. I hope you can tell me what's wrong in my setup. :( I self made a PIC18F8720 development board, and it seems to work, because I can program the chip with no problems. I'm using 100 nF SMD capacitors near every Vdd (including AVdd), and an integrated clock oscillator. It's a 24 MHz CMOS part by Epso...

I'm building a little toy, and need to read a hand-encoded storage medium something like punched tape. Right now I'm looking at the Panasonic CNB1002 reflective photosensors, which integrate an IR LED and phototransistor in a small gull-wing SMD package. In my small quantities they're about $0.55 each. I need three - a clock bit, and two data channels. Apart from the cost they're perfect - th...

Hi, We'll be using the PLL for the first time in a product, out of necessity (the micro only allows a crystal up to 8MHz, but we need a 32MHz clock). The PLL will also be clocking a CAN module within the microcontroller. I'd be grateful for insight into any of the following questions: a)How do long do PLL's take to start? b)Do PLL's ever fail to start? c)If there is more than on...
