[sdiy] 32bit Atmel Parts

[karl dalen]

Theo!

Atmel has a reputation when it comes to deliver ARM based MCU's!
Bad is the word!

I use Philips LPC2106 ARM based MCU which is very cheap less 
then 10 usd in units, is quite fast to, fastes among many
varuious ARM inplementations in its class, it do lack some
things but are good at others!

Hooooowwweeeeveeer, it dosent run odinary linux setup since
it lacks the MMU, but if you want run linux on ARM at once
i would like to sugest Cirrus logic EP9301 MCU, ARM9 based
they have a deal for a EP9301 EVB including Linux 2,4,21 for
350USD wich is quite competetive price!!

Here are an exerpt from Cirrus home page about it:
The board supports 32 MB of SDRAM, 16 MB of Flash, a serial EEPROM
interface, two UARTs, 1/10/100 Mbps Ethernet and a stereo audio input
via a serial interface block. With agile performance provided by a
166 MHz ARM920T processor and featuring integrated peripheral interfaces,
the EDB9301 is well suited to a broad range of next-generation consumer
and industrial electronic products.

No im not an CL employee or a distributor!(however it would have
been nice to be one i must admit!)
