I Need an IC

Hi guys,

I need a processor that is powerful and will be able to interact with HDMI, USB, Bluetooth, Bluray and the general stufff. Also I want it to be able to be programmed c++ and be put on a PCB. Would be nice if unexpensive.

Thanks a lot to you guys!

So If I were in your position Id start with Pic , work your way through to atmel which is considerably more difficult , serial routines , interrupts software and hardware then move onto how to interface USB etc whilst considering java, c sharp , Vbasic , windows routines , windows api's , touch screen , active x , comm , The event cue , the docu Try Pic micro by far the easiest to start with the 18F series or Try the raspberry pi all on there for you or the beagle board That should be your direction at the moment as far as C++ is concerned Id learn to program in c and java at present also might pay you to learn PHP Mysql , Perl as well as machine code for all of the above , lynx / UNIX plus on a far more simpler scale Oracle etc this will all come into play with NASM , assembler , C , C++ although I can see your interest in OOP but before you start this you will need to understand pointers , structures , arrays , matrices , interfaces , serial , parallel . multi threaded applications , Pc programming as well as comms / network programming the TCIp / Ip stack the Bluetooth Stack what you can do what you cant do , math’s behind some of this extremely difficult , PCb design , multilayered circuits , basic electronics , motor theory , Ethernet , wide networks , network architecture both rf and physical connections , CPU theory , what you don’t have to learn an take in



So If I were in your position Id start with Pic , work your way through to atmel which is considerably more difficult , serial routines , interrupts software and hardware then move onto how to interface USB etc whilst considering java, c sharp , Vbasic , windows routines , windows api's , touch screen , active x , comm , The event cue , well you have so much to take in that I wouldn’t just consider one language Id look at all of this inclusive android , blackberry , carbide C++ , the lot

loads of very hard intensive work many hours pulling your hair out and lots and lots of practice , the document object model , JavaScript , flash scripts , graphics , LCD interfacing , well you have so much to take in that I wouldn’t just consider one language Id look at all of this inclusive android , blackberry , carbide C++ , the lot and I probably haven’t even mentioned a third of this as yet


never mind anything eles you have to learn this includes encryption , decryption, cross threaded applications the why the why not's yes No joke

Then there is also tapi , sapi , all your protocols , what responses to expect from servers , sockets , html , streams how you deal with streams , both input and output then encryption , adc , comma , comma , comma and then installation service what not to what to do and then there is networking over mains , infra red , and also remote control protocols Oh yes you will have to know all of this and more !! Electrics Back up supplies , UPS , solar then we move onto smart cards , java ring technology , phew , No not joking then there we look at RFID , sensors all types,,, ho ho ho im laughing at this because I know exactly what you are all going to have to covered that’s without analogue systems as well which you will be expected to interface with

NOT KIDDING AT ALL you will be like bombs going off once you work this little story out and work out what you haven’t done is like no tomorrow , never mind how to extract details , email , passwords , ha ha ha ha ha Oh dear is you in for a massive shock

Dont forget you need to keep up with all the most modern intergrated circuits at the same time as well wicked !!! as well as knowing where and who to buy them from and why !! Oh yes is this all comming to you lot now lol

Ok, thanks alot. Im already looking into all that stuff and starting to understand it all. Thanks for your time!

this a project.

Can i put FreeBSD on the raspberry pi ?
