Hi, I'm fairly new to the embedded systems. I understand basic things about MCU and have  experience with Atmel chips. I recently got the  LPCxpresso board and i really like to learn the ARM mcu's with this board.
I will be grateful if u can share some sites or docs which will help me  learn arm mcu's from scratch.
(sorry for my English : ))

A good starting point for learning about MCUs would be

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcontroller
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_system

[though the usual warnings about wikpedia content apply]

Googling for 'ARM MCU' will throw up lots of other sites for you to  explore too.

For more specific information start at:
