Am Avinash.T.J doing my btech(ece) at AMRITA ENGINEERING COLLEGE
(INDIA) ..Am interested in designing a pda .So i need to know which
processor is used for this? i want to program it by my on.Is there any
c compilers for it? In the first phase am not interested in building a
real pda..only a small miniature one which can perform the functions
like calculator,phonebook,calender.Also i wamt to know from where will
i get the parts ?.Will i able to do with pic microcontrollres???...So
pls suggest me the sites where i can get th informations about this
stuffs.pls reply as early as possible.If possible reply to

As far as I know, most PDAs use an ARM processor; you can expect that most these days will use a small 32-bit processor.
They also take many man-years to put together.
You could make a device with the functions that you want using a large PIC, assuming that you could find an LCD screen that you liked (finding a _touch_ screen is probably out of the question, though).
Getting an ARM processor on a board running Linux and talking to an LCD would be quite an achievement, and you'd be able to build on that.

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says.
