DIY Controller (Atmel based)

Hey Kwirky if you have any problems with the code let me know....What language are you gonna program in???

I can program with C of coarse and I'm not bad with assembly!

I'll be using C through the gcc/atmel compiler. Assembly would be required for something of extreme performance but it's not like I'm doing frequency generation or the likes. I shouldn't have problems with C. It'll more or less be problems with the poorly documented atmel library for C that I forsee. But like I said i'm not doing anything real complex.

One thing I don't know is how to make a serializing circuit. I understand the programming but how the transistors would go together to "unserialize" the data later is a bit beyond me. It's the electronics that I'm learning as I go.

I got me some "8 bit parallel serial shift registers"

They're so I can use like 3 pins for 8 pins worth of traffit. mainly for the LCD screen/s.

I got all the 10 pin wire and ends too and a cheap little 500ma power supply. I'll be getting the serial cable tomorrow hopefully then start playing with them on friday.
