Microchip's Microstick II (part # DM330013-2, $34.95) easy-to-use and low-cost development tool supporting 16- and 32-bit PIC® microcontrollers (MCUs), as well as 16-bit dsPIC® Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs). The Microstick II tool features everything designers need to get started designing with these MCUs and DSCs, including an integrated debugger and programmer, user LED, reset button, and DUT socket for easy device swapping. The USB-powered tool can be used standalone or plugged into a prototyping board for extremely flexible development and is supported by the MPLAB® X Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
The Arduino µc board takes its own portrait using a hacked-up USB cable, a Canon PowerShot A720-IS and the CHDK firmware. Read more at nw5w.com/journal/
It’s interesting to explore what we can do with this tiny 8 pins; 8-bit microcontroller. The ATtiny13 is the smallest and cheapest Atmel AVR 8-bit microcontroller families but yet, it’s loaded with sophisticated peripherals such as two 8-bit PWM channels and 4 channels 10-bit ADC.

This is a persistence of vision project.
Microchip's PIC32 “MX1” and “MX2” MCUs are the smallest and lowest-cost PIC32 microcontrollers, and are the first PIC32 MCUs to feature dedicated audio and capacitive-sensing peripherals.
I finally got round to trying my hand at microcontroller programming. Following this instructable it was dead easy.
The main problem I ran up against was in the software. On Linux you need the ppdev module in order to have access to /dev/parports. In menuconfig it's Device drivers -> Character devices -> Support for user-space parallel port device drivers.
On Debian you need the following packages:
avr-libc binutils-avr gcc-avr avrdude
Your user also needs to be in the lp group for access to the parallel port.

Microchip announced the expansion of its Low Power PIC® microcontroller (MCU) portfolio. Features of the new PIC24F “GB6” family include up to 1 MB of Flash memory with Error Correction Code (ECC) and 32 KB of RAM, making it the first 16-bit MCU in Microchip’s portfolio to offer such a large memory size. Also featuring dual-partition Flash with Live Update capability, these devices can hold two independent software applications, permitting the simultaneous programming of one partition while executing application code from the other. This powerful combination of features makes the PIC24F “GB6” family ideal for industrial, computer, medical/fitness and portable applications that require a long battery life, and data transfer and storage without the need of external memory, such as electricity metering, HVAC control, fingerprint scanners and gaming. For more information of the GB6 family, visit: www.microchip.com/PIC24FGB6-112315a
Microchip announced a new series within its PIC32MX1/2 32-bit microcontroller (MCU) family that features a large 256 KB Flash configuration and 16 KB of RAM in small-footprint packages. These latest additions to this popular MCU family provide flexibility to low-cost applications that need complex algorithms and application code, and they are coupled with Microchip’s comprehensive software and tools for designs in graphics, touch sensing and general-purpose embedded control.
