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 ...

[Mark] had seen a few examples of algorithmic music generation that takes some simple code and produces complex-sounding results. Apparently it’s possible to pipe the output of code like this directly ...

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 ...

Many companies have switched to the open source Eclipse platform instead of pushing their own proprietary IDE. Atmel decided to take a different approach for its 8- and 32-bit AVR microcontrollers. It ...

Microchip announces the release of MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment version 5.05 which beta supports the majority of AVR microcontrollers. This release will allow designers who traditionally ...

Microchip announced a family of 8bit AVR microcontrollers (AVR-DD) this week with a variable voltage IO interface that I had entirely missed when it first appeared in the earlier ‘DB’ family. This ...

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 ...

The AT90USB82 and AT90USB162 AVR microcontrollers from Atmel Corp. incorporate a number of performance features, including a full-speed (12-Mbit/s) USB controller. The AVR family of microcontrollers ...

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 ...
