Simple USB Data Acquisition

Simple USB Data Acquisition
Simple data acquisition is only a project away. Bruce shows you how to build a simple data acquisition device around an LPC2138. The system features a simple GUI that allows you to view graphed data instead of the streaming serial data in a terminal emulator session.

PHOENIX Micro-controller Development

PHOENIX Micro-controller Development
PMDK is an easy-to-use, low cost micro-controller development system. The hardware consists of an ATmega16 MCU, LCD display and regulated DC supply. All the I/O pins of the MCU are available on sockets. Software development is done on a standard PC using the AVR-GCC cross compiler and the executable is uploaded to the MCU through Parallel, Serial or USB ports.[more]
