Bruce Land let us know that the final projects for EE476 Microcontroller Design, a class he teaches at Cornell, are online now. You may remember some of last years projects: P-P-P-Palm, Big Red Juice Mixer, wireless telemetry. This year's projects include a Reflow oven controller, an RFID security system, and an autonomous helicopter plus many, many, more.

1. I used the pic HID example from USB complete, and some of the routines from the VB6 code for that proyect. they are at usb central, and the book usb complete is a great source for information. http://www.lvr.com/usb.htm Check the HID section and search for the Microchip PIC18F4550 Generic HID Device Firmware as well as the vb6 code example for the same hid If any of you need more information just write me an email jesus.arechiga at gmail d0t c0m

2. We are learning pic at school. We use the 458. My friend use the 455 with USB for is final project. He made a wind logger that consume around 7uA at sleep. He shoot all the data via USB. I am interested to learn Atmel, they seem nice.

4. I get the feeling I went to the wrong school. My final project for my microprocessor design class was to make a musical composition program using a keypad and a buzzer. Also, we were using a 68HC11, which is considered legacy. (end rant). I really like these projects, I kinda wanna get the code they use to generate the NTSC signal, and adapt it to a PIC.

5. i believe if you google it yourself, germs, you would find that there's a lack of decent example projects and information. sure, there's the thick datasheets from microchip, but they're almost worthless.
