A community for everyone who works with microcontrollers from SOT23-6 PICs and ATTINYs to PICs, STMs, and ESPs. All microcontrollers and all users are welcome here. If you're just starting out, read some posts and ask some questions. If you're building cool projects post picture and share your work. If you're a professional tell us about your project and answer questions. Blog posts and updates are encouraged. Let's talk about programming languages, IDEs, and programmers. Post code, schematics, and board layouts.

RULES:

All Lemmy.ca rules apply here.

  1. Everyone (see rule 98) is welcome.

  2. If you’ve seen a question 100 times answer it the 101st time or ignore it. Even better, write a complete, detailed answer and suggest that the mod(s) pin it to the community.

  3. There is no best microcontroller, language, IDE, or programmer, only what works best for you. There will be no elitist bullshit here. See rule 98.

[Did you actually think there were 98 rules?]

  1. If you present something as fact and are asked to provide proof or a source provide proof or a source. Proof must be from a reliable source. If you fail to provide proof or a source your post or comment may be removed.

  2. Don’t be a dick. Yes, this is a catch-all rule.

  3. The mod(s) have the final say.

I currently have everything from ATTINY9 and 10 chips in SOT23-6 packages, to ATMEGA328Ps and PBs and their Chinese LGT8F328P clones to ATMEGA2560s, some STMs, some PICs, some Raspberry Pis, and some ESPs of various flavors. There are also Py boards in there and some that I don't even remember.

I mostly work with AVRs and ESPs but the brothers I work with who own a small custom electronics business use PICs so they have been encouraging me to branch out.

I had been using BascomAVR to program the AVR chips but following the author expiring the license I had paid full price for for asking questions in the forums I have switched to Great Cow Basic. It can compile to a large number of MCUs, not just the AVRs so I'm expanding my repertoire.

Are you new or experienced? What MCUs and microcontrollers do you use? Which ones are you interested in? What languages do you program them in? Which IDE do you use? What projects are you working on?
