Why doesn the PicoWeb Server use a PIC microcontroller from Microchip?
We chose an Atmel microcontroller for the PicoWeb server primarily because of it’s use of flash-based program and data memory. This helps make firmware development quick and easy. Nevertheless, the PicoWeb firmware could be ported to any of many other microcontrollers from a number of different vendors. If you have a favorite one, Lightner Engineering would be happy to discuss such a project.
