Microchip has introduced the AVR SD family of microcontrollers with a dual-core lockstep (DCLS) configuration.
ATtiny Development Boards are Compatible with Arduino IDE
https://www.electronics-lab.com/attiny-development-boards-are-compatible-with-arduino-ide/
In recent years Atmel has been producing and releasing AVR microcontrollers that are equipped with a new set of peripherals. These microcontrollers use the AVR instruction set and open source AVR-GCC compiler that is used with the general AVR microcontrollers but they are differently designed with enhanced on-chip peripherals and highly competitive prices. The line […]
SerialUPDI Programmer – Simple UPDI programmer for tinyAVR
https://www.electronics-lab.com/serialupdi-programmer-simple-updi-programmer-for-tinyavr/
Simple UPDI programmer for tinyAVR, megaAVR and AVR-Dx microcontrollers with voltage selection switch (5V and 3.3V). The programmer works with pyupdi as well as with the Arduino IDE as “SerialUPDI with 4.7k resistor or diode”. It is based on the USB-to-serial chip CH340N.

The Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) are a type of flat panel display that uses liquid crystals for operation. They are relatively old technology but can be seen in clocks, laptops, computers, calculators, dashboards, and other electronic projects and devices because of their advantages over newer types of displays, including low power, low cost, and readability. […]

AVR microcontrollers are RISC architecture-based microcontroller series that have on-chip flash memory for data storage. The popularity of ARM microcontrollers can be seen by the range of applications it has. They are used in home automation, touch screen, automobiles, medical devices, and defense. They are also quite popular among hobbyists and makers. Most AVR microcontrollers […]
USB UPDI Programmer PCB for AVR Micrcontrollers
https://www.electronics-lab.com/usb-updi-programmer-pcb-for-avr-micrcontrollers/
AVR is a microcontroller family developed in 1996 by Atmel, now acquired by Microchip Technology since 2016. AVR generally refers to the 8-bit RISC architecture line of ATMEL AVR microcontrollers. They are very popular in embedded systems. They are very common in maker and hobbyist embedded applications and they are also included in Arduino boards. […]
TinyICOC – AVR In-Circuit Oscillator Calibrator
https://www.electronics-lab.com/tinyicoc-avr-in-circuit-oscillator-calibrator/
Stefan Wagner published another great project on Github. He writes: Sometimes AVRs are operated without an external clock. The internal oscillator does a good job in most applications, but when it comes to precise timing, it is too inaccurate. The accuracy of the oscillator of an AVR is only +/-10%. Fortunately, the oscillator can be […]
Pocket Op Amp Lab powered by AVR128DB28
https://www.electronics-lab.com/pocket-op-amp-lab-powered-by-avr128db28/
This is a self-contained tool to allow you to experiment with the configurable op amps provided in the new AVR DB-series processors from Microchip. It shows the configuration as a circuit diagram on the display, and lets you reconfigure it by selecting options from on-screen menus. The display is dynamically updated to reflect the configuration […]
A full-duplex tiny AVR software UART
https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-full-duplex-tiny-avr-software-uart/
UARTs for AVR MCUs by Nerd Ralph, he writes: I’ve written a few software UARTs for AVR MCUs. All of them have bit-banged the output, using cycle-counted assembler busy loops to time the output of each bit. The code requires interrupts to be disabled to ensure accurate timing between bits. This makes it impossible to […]
Azzy Electronics Launches Breakout boards for the new AVR DA-series
https://www.electronics-lab.com/azzy-electronics-launches-breakout-boards-for-the-new-avr-da-series/
AVR DA Product Family are known for real time control functionality and easy capacitive touch to the low power performance of AVR Microcontrollers. It pairs the latest Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) with a robust Intelligent Analog portfolio to create a device that not only excels as a stand-alone processor but also as a companion MCU in designs that demand […]
