    ''i am familiar with AVR''

     

    So remember back to the days before you  became familiar with AVR software - how did you gain that familiarity?

    The process of gaining familarity with any new thing is the same; so just do it again - but, this time, for STM8.

    Things you'll need to do:

    • Study the Datasheet

       

    • Study the other resources available from the manufacturer - application notes, examples, etc.

       
    • Speak to your Distributor - many of them offer seminars, etc

       
    • Search the web for examples
    At the top of the forum threads list, it says:

     

    ''STM8 product information, related tools and additional resources

    can be found on ST website: click

    http://www.st.com/internet/mcu/class/1738.jsp

    .''

     

     

    Did you try clicking 

    http://www.st.com/internet/mcu/class/1738.jsp

     ?

    Again, see the link at the top of this forum's ''home'' page: 

    ''STM8 product information, related tools and additional resources

    can be found on ST website: click

    http://www.st.com/internet/mcu/class/1738.jsp

    .''

     

     

    When you click

    http://www.st.com/internet/mcu/class/1738.jsp

    ,  it takes you to the STM8 ''home'' page - bookmark that!

    On that page you will see a 'Resources' tab; on that tab is a link to 'tools home' - the clue is in the name!
