That's the challenge. You can use the PIC for the main target mentioned at Microchip website. However, it is mainly you who decide how to use a PIC. For example you can make a Christmas lights from a PIC32 or you can make a DSP from a 12F629 if the specifics of the application + the MCU resources allows that. > if you have any specific suggestions please do let me know. Try to build simple circuits starting from LED flashers -- basically try to follow 1 of the 10 books you have and also try to make modifications on the circuit and the firmware.
