This project uses a 12xx series PIC to control the rear light to go on a bicycle. The main function is for when you are riding your bike at night so people can see you. Hardware schematics, PCB layout & software is all there. Avid bicyclists don't miss this one!

Today while I was looking around the inter-webs, I ran across this psuedo-ARM project index. The index is mostly an assortment of example programs for the more advanced features like timers & interrupts. Definitely worth a look if you need more ARM example code to look at.

If you've ever been interested in the Arduino microcontroller here's your chance to get a sweet little dev board for free. Uchobby has a giveaway program that is still in action. The board itself is probably not worth more than $20 but it is still worth at least a quick look.
