We love looking at hardcore electronics projects with a beefy microcontroller and hundreds, if not thousands, of lines of code at its center. But everyone needs to get there somehow. This tutorial ...

A Direct AVR Parallel Access, or DAPA cable, is an incredibly simple and cheap programming method. You can build one very quickly for a few bucks worth of parts, but the convenience comes with a few ...

The goal of this project was to study the AVR microcontollers. The following is a CodeVisionAVR project that can be used to build a new firmware for the microcontroller. As a SPICE system to simulate ...

When it comes to AVR microcontrollers the most common programming option is In-System Programming (ISP). ISP interface is easy to use but in some scenarios it is totally unusable. The most common ...

SEBASTOPOL, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 6, 2014) - If you've been designing with Arduino and love it, you're ready to love the hardware that improves performance and increases your design options. Atmel's ...

The project utilizes an open source Atmel AVR microcontroller while incorporating a state of the art USB programmer. The firmware of the USB programmer can work for almost any AVR microcontroller on ...

I've been interested in getting into microcontroller programming lately, and I've been looking at Microchips PIC16F and PIC18F series (especially the PIC16F), and also Atmel's ATtiny and ATmega series ...

The most commonly used programming tools for AVR Microcontrollers are a C language compiler or assembler. Each approach has relative strengths and limitations. Assembly language programs typically ...

Microchip has created an AVR microcontroller series with 12Mbit/s USB 2.0 and code protection. “As the next generation of Microchip 8-bit MCUs to integrate USB connectivity, the AVR DU family is ...
