The low-cost, low pin count PIC24F04KA201 family of 16-bit microcontrollers—the latest to feature nanoWatt XLP extreme low power technology—starts at less than $.99 each in high volumes. The PIC24F04KA family makes it even more cost effective to take advantage of the world’s lowest sleep-current consumption microcontrollers, with typical sleep currents as low as 20 nA. This low power and lower cost, combined with small-footprint 14- and 20-pin package options, makes the PIC24F04KA201 MCU family ideal for battery-powered applications, energy-harvesting applications and other power-constrained applications that are also cost and space constrained.

Microchip Technology's 8-bit PIC16F(LF)720/1 microcontrollers expanded upon its existing 28-/40-pin PIC16F72X microcontroller (MCU) family with two new 20-pin devices—the PIC16F(LF)720 and PIC16F(LF)721.

This little microcontroller evaluation kit is going to be a long exposure timer/intervalometer when I'm done with it. For about $20, it comes with an 8-bit processor with 16K of flash memory, LCD screen, a serial port for programming (you have to solder your own header to it), a temperature sensor, and other assorted goodies (including 512KB of external flash that I have no use for).

Raspberry Pi Pico is a low-cost, high-performance microcontroller board with flexible digital interfaces

$2.00 image chip, junk lens, $20 microcontroller board

The Digilent Pmod MTDS is a gorgeous 2.8" touchscreen display with a powerful on-board microcontroller that performs graphics processing tasks. The display is a capacitive touchscreen with QVGA resolution (320×240) and 2 finger multi-touch support.

 

The most compelling aspect of the Pmod MTDS is the programming experience provided by its Multi-Touch Display System (MTDS) Firmware and the associated libraries. These allow you to design sleek, stylish user interfaces very quickly and with very little code. The timing dependent tasks are handled by the firmware, so integrating the display into existing projects is also a snap. Some of the key functionality provided by the libraries include the ability to draw basic shapes and text, draw images stored on microSD with binary transparency, draw buttons and easily check if they have been pressed, and check the status and location of the user's two fingers. The libraries are supported in Arduino IDE and Xilinx SDK, and have been tested with Ardiuno, chipKIT, and Arty host boards.

... well sort of.

 

I had a number of ATMega328 chips which needed the bootloader to be burned on to them, and this is what is going on here.

 

The LCD etc is not part of the act, it's just a remnant from the previous setup.

 

It's a fairly straightforward process once you know what to do, and in what order to do them.

Building a microcontroller from scratch.

Each row blinks on and off. This is a picture taken in the dark. I lined the face up in the lower right in the camera's LCD screen, and when it went dark, signaling the picture being taken, I slid the face up and to the left. The red lights appear as dots, proving that they're not on continuously as they appear to be. Actually, there is a slight shimmer to them, especially if you look around at different parts of the face - when your eye jumps, you can see the shimmer in your mental afterimage. I did throw in a pretty lengthy pause via TIMER0 between rows, though, so this can be reduced, and what's more, I'm only using a 4MHz oscillator, which runs a bit slower than that in tests. When I switch to the 20MHz crystal, and crank up the voltage a bit, it should appear rock solid, even across the proposed 32x32, bicolor panel I'm hoping to build with this.

 

Energizer paid me $0.50 for that bit of subliminal advertising.

The chipKIT™ WF32 is a prototyping platform that adds the performance of the Microchip® PIC32 microcontroller. The WF32 is the first board from Digilent to have a WiFi MRF24 and SD card on the board both with dedicated signals. The WF32 board takes advantage of the powerful PIC32MX695F512L microcontroller, which features a 32-bit MIPS processor core running at 80 MHz, 512K of flash program memory, and 128K of SRAM data memory. The WF32 can be programmed using the Multi-Platform Integrated Development Environment (MPIDE). It contains everything needed to start developing embedded applications. The WF32 features a USB serial port interface for connection to the MPIDE and can be powered via USB or by an external power supply. In addition, the WF32 is fully compatible with the advanced Microchip MPLAB® IDE and works with all MPLAB compatible in-system programmer/debuggers, such as the Microchip PICkit™3 or the Digilent chipKIT PGM.
