/mcg/ - Microcontroller General: Massive Through-hole MCU Edition
Previous Thread: >>2928655
Here we discuss microcontrollers (MCUs), single board computers (SBCs), and their accessories, such as Atmel mega and tiny AVRs (Arduinos), PICs, ARM boards such as blue/black pill STM32, ESP8266/32s, RP2040, Raspberry Pi, and others.
For general electronics questions (power supplies, level shifting, motor driving, etc.) please ask /ohm/.
>where can I find verified quality microcontrollers and other electronic sensors or parts
digikey.com
mouser.com
arrow.com
newark.com
>but that's too expensive
aliexpress.com (many parts here are fake, particularly specific parts out of stock in the above sites)
lcsc.com
>I need a part that does X and Y, with Z specifications. How can I find it?
use DigiKey's or Octopart's parametric part search. Then purchase from one of the sellers listed above.
>how do I get started with microcontrollers, where should I start?
There is no defined starting point, grab a book and start reading or buy an arduino off ebay/amazon and start messing around. There are a plethora of examples online to get started.

Arduino is not cool. In fact it's fucking stupid in multiple ways.>>2952826
Are we gonna start hating on starter kits now?Which is the easiest SoM to build a PCB for and get it to work with an embedded linux? Aren't there any templates with the right footprints and conducting traces for a basic periphery? As well as a pre-configured embedded linux? I basically seek a starting point to jump off the development board onto the self-designed board.>>2952826
i'm a noob. what's stupid about it
