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 ...

Alarm digital clock using atmega32 AVR Designing an alarm clock project using the ATmega32 AVR microcontroller can be an exciting and educational task. Below is a step-by-step outline of the project ...

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 ...

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 ...

Almost all AVR microcontrollers have built-in Electrically Eraseable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM).The advantage of EEPROM is that even when the microcontroller is turned off, data stored in ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a reliable wireless configuration bits programmer for remotely resetting incorrectly-written Microchip AVR microcontrollers’ Fuses and Lock Bits. The incorrect ...
