Hi all.
I'm looking at designing a device for testing hall sensors that we produce at work (2.5v vRef & Vout). I came up with the idea of using some LCD voltage measurement displays, but they are not cheap and not very flexible.
It was suggested by my boss that I use a Micro controller (they prefer either Atmel or PIC) and one of the LCD screens that we already have (RS232) to display the two voltages, then we could even interface with a PC in future for logging results etc.
Now, I'm at the beginning of the project and have not started to look for processors yet but if anyone has any useful advice or direction that would be great because I'm new to processors and programming but eager to learn.
Thanks
