We've seen a few builds featuring NXP's LPC1114 microcontroller before. This chip - the only breadboard friendly ARM microcontroller available - comes in a 'still a little too large for prototyping' 600 mil, 28 pin package. We won't hazard a guess why NXP chose this rather large package, but the good news is it's possible to shave this chip down to the more common 300 mil, 28-pin package used by … [Read more...]
