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 ...

In the last installment of our tutorial series we built a simple circuit on a breadboard and programmed an ATmega168 to make it run. That proves that you know how to follow directions, but the eureka ...

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 ...

AVR is a family of microcontrollers from Atmel. In principle, microcontroller is a midget computer in a single IC which can be programmed to do all sorts of things. AVRs are equipped with built-in ...

In this age of microelectronics and robotics, we are fortunate enough with the availablilty of a vast range of compact, easy to use and flexible robotics project kits. Usually in almost all hobby ...

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 ...
