simavr is a software simulator for the AVR line of microcontrollers. You might be asking why anyone would write this sort of thing considering the simulator provided with AVR Studio is a wonderful ...

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 ...

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 ...

The AVR 8-bit microcontroller's modified Harvard architecture was introduced in 1997. These Atmel microcontrollers are popular among a reasonably large number of developers because they provide decent ...

Until recently, a very common problem faced by electronic circuit designers was the difference in supply voltage standards between microcontrollers (e.g. 3.3 V) and peripheral ICs (e.g. 5 V). In order ...

Designers who have traditionally used Microchip’s PIC microcontrollers (MCUs) and developed with the MPLAB ecosystem can now easily evaluate and incorporate AVR MCUs into their applications. The ...

Addressing the challenge of sensor-based IoT systems that combine analog functionality and digital control capability, Microchip Technology Inc. has introduced the first PIC and AVR microcontrollers ...

Microchip Technology, a provider of microcontroller, mixed-signal, analog and Flash-IP solutions, has further expanded its AVR microcontroller (MCU) portfolio by adding three new devices to the ...

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today that it has shipped its 500 Millionth AVR(R) Flash Microcontroller. Atmel introduced the AVR 8-bit Microcontroller Architecture in 1997. Over the ...
