Hi all,

I'm new to this forum. Seems to me the popular MCU around is PIC and Atmel . I'm doing NXP ARM7 now. Previously involved in Zilog and AMD. Would like to know if there's any ARM buddies there.

ARM MCU certainly will be an overkill if used for simple hobbyist project. ARM refers to the architecture layout inside the MCU itself. Various manufacturer are providing ARM microcontroller. NXP,Atmel and Freescale are providing it to name a few. I used ARM7 in my current work. I will be using PIC16F series for my future project.
