Hi there,
I wanting to start learning about programming microcontrollers and have done some preliminary research have discovered I need some advice.
I seem to have a lot of abbreviations, but am not sure which is the best path to choose, ie should I start with PIC, dsPIC, FPGA etc. The trouble is that there seem to a lot of "starter kits" but what or the general pro's and cons. Can anyone point me towards a good high-level article for beginners that would explain this stuff? I've had a good look at Microchip.com's site but even within that can't really decide what better for what and why?
All help greatly appreciated!
Best regards
