Title: Looking For Microcontroller
Post by: Andyspins on January 15, 2011, 04:28:17 PM

Hi, I need a cheap MC that can have 5 servos, ir range, photo resister, a LED, and easy programming. If you know of one that would be helpful.       

                                        Thanks,
                                        Andyspins

I know some people cringe when I say this around here, but the best starting Microcontroller IMHO that will do everything you need is the Arduino.

Then when you are ready to take off the training wheels and have the money upgrade to an Axon.
