''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

 ?

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!

''I think it's an ST proprietary core''

 

Yes - it is.
