AVR : Tutorial 1: Introduction to AVR Elecrom October 21, 2007; Updated On: September 1st, 2015 4 AVR microcontrollers from ATMEL are very good choice for designing mid-range embedded systems.They are 8Bit RISC controllers. They come in many verities and most of them gives 16MIPS (Mega Instructions Per Seconds) throughput at 16MHz . Unlike most of the popular PIC microcontrollers, AVRs have powerful instruction set, most executing in 1 cycle. Recently ATMEL … Continue reading AVR : Tutorial 1: Introduction to AVR
