Thanks to V-USB, software-based USB is all the rage now, with a lot of uses for very small and low power microcontrollers.[ZiB] wondered if it would be possible to implement a USB controller on the ...

There are so many different CPUs today and often the hardest thing about using any of them is getting started and gathering the right software tools. If you’ve ever eyed up the very inexpensive STM8 ...

ST Microelectronics has introduced a development kit that allows potential users to evaluate all three of its 8pin STM8 microcontroller variants, and the no-frills board is nominally priced at $8.50.

STMicroelectronics has come up with a lower cost 8-bit STM series MCU in the SO-8 package. With a price tag as low as 200 cents for orders of 1000 pieces, the STM8S001 has I2C, UART, and SPI ...
