Help me with Microcontrollers

<< < (2/2)

Brandon121233:
First of all, currently I am not aware of any microcontroller development board which has a good H Bridge motor driver built in. Your probably better off buying one like this separately http://www.hobbyengineering.com/H1918.html. Now on to the microcontroller, you mentioned under $150, so I have a couple of suggestions about where to get started: If you want an AVR based controller board I would suggest the Wiring Programming Platform http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=744. The Pololu Orangutan Robot Controller http://www.pololu.com/products/pololu/0225/ seems to be a good choice as well. Another often used board is the MIT Handy Board http://www.handyboard.com/hardware/, it is based on the Motorola MC68HC11, but it is a bit more expensive. If you want a lower end board that still has many features I would suggest the Arduino board http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=666, I just ordered the Arduino myself and I am anxious to find out how much it can do.
