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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Designed for work in circuits with varied voltage levels. Until recently, a very common problem faced by electronic circuit designers was the difference in supply voltage standards between ...

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 ...

Semiconductor manufacturer Atmel Corp. recently announced its smaller-than-a-dime 13.56 MHz chip reader–billed also as the lowest cost–geared for the handheld reader market. Available for $250, the ...
