Hi there! I am new to this site so please be patient...lol
I am trying to do my final project for Electronics engineering but am having a lot of difficulties getting started. What I am trying to make is a simplified game console using the atmega328p microcontroller chip. I am using the uLCD-144 as my screen and number of pushbuttons for the inputs.
So, what I need help with is how to connect everything up. I know that a lot will depend on what functions I am using but I am looking for the basic way to hook everything up so I can start doing some programming. I have the datasheet for the atmega328p but it is very confusing and I dont even know where to begin. I need to create my own pcb (.brd & .sch files) using eaglecad software but as of now I am just using two breadboards.
I have a lot of other components but also am not sure what else I will need to use. (decoupling caps, resistors ect.)
If anyone has any advice or help they can offer it would be greatly appreciated.
