The highly popular ATtiny and ATmega microcontrollers (formerly from Atmel, now from Microchip) are based on the 8-bit AVR microcontroller architecture. Let's consider some of the reasons to learn and ...

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 ...

For this project I use Atmega328P which is an old but lovely microcontroller used in Arduino Uno. Keep in mind that Atmega328P is NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NEW DESIGNS and we are going to use it only to ...

It’s assumed that you have procured one USBasp Programmer from your trusted component vendor! Connecting the programmer to your computer comprises of two steps. First step is the physical connection ...

-- AVR Dragon Provides On-Chip Debugging and Programming at Only US$49 Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today the AVR Dragon(TM) development tool for AVR(R) microcontrollers. By providing ...

This is a fork of the code and examples from "Make: AVR Programming" that I've addapted to work with the Arduino Uno R3 (I'm using the SMD variant, but it shouldn't matter which UNO R3 you're using).
