Hi,
This question doesn't really belong to this mailing list, but since some of
you know quite a lot about microcontrollers I thought maybe someone could
help me.
I'm working on a project about A Management System for an Optical network.
Therefore I'm going to create a microcontroller network. The problem is: I
can't find the microcontroller that satisfies my needs.
I'd like a microcontroller which has the following properties:
- Serial and I2C bus
- A/D converters
- on chip flash/EEPROM program memory (A few KB's would do the job I think,
but the more the better)
- Serial programming (so I don't need programming devices, like with my HB)
- a DIP or PLCC package
- It shouldn't be too expensive
There's 1 chip which has this properties, the Philips 89CE558, but this
chip is quite expensive, and worst of all it's an SMD chip which won't fit
a socket. This makes it almost inpossible to experiment with it. And even
more difficult to make a PCB for it here....
Is there anyone who has any suggestions. A few external devices would be
acceptable, but I don't prefer that of course.(an external I2C chip for
example wouldn't be a large problem.
I like motorola, but couldn't find anything there.....or is it me?
Any help is really appreciated.
Greetz,
Bastiaan Jansen

| If you can use an I2c chip, then the Motorola MC68HC11E2 has 2k of EEPROM and costs about 8-10 dollars. You can try contacting Motorola for samples if you are a student I have heard they are free. You need a school letterhead signed by a proffessor. (...) (27 years ago, 11-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
