I'm looking for a site which I can input my desired micro-controller characteristics. I have found the manufacturer websites…but those will only show their micro-controllers.
I.E. there's a site for PICS and a site for AVR, etc. but I'm looking for one that will select possibilities from ALL manufacturers, other than that it's just running around in the dark…

Digi-Key has a broad search tool where you can select parts across 30 microcontroller manufacturers. It has ARMs, AVRs, PICs, 8051 derivatives etc. -- over 48,500 individual parts.

You can search for core size (8, 16, 32), speed, peripherals, program size, RAM size, EEPROM size, # of I/O pins, and package across all parts.
