Nah, that part I've got figured out. Soldering the thing wont be any trouble. It's a matter of figuring out how to interface with it. I mean, reading the block diagrams are a challenge and understanding which pins I need to use in the programming circuit vs which pins will work as, say, i/o ports to read sensor data is something that's beyond my current level of understanding.
Is there a good source anywhere for reading up on how to dissect an IC datasheet? It'll give you an acronym for each pin, and sometimes explain what they do, but that's all assuming you know which combination of them need to be used for any given task.
Am I making sense?
