A timer is a simple counter! The input clock of microcontroller and operation of the timer is independent of the program execution.All the Atmel microcontrollers have Timers as an inbuilt peripheral.

Until now we learned how to connect an LED as an output device, and a button switch as an input device. Besides, we already studied the basic facts about AVR fuses, and the coding procedure to a ...

Whether you are creating a small Internet appliance, some hardware instrumentation, data loggers or an army of autonomous robots to do your bidding, in numerous situations you need the flexibility of ...

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 ...

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today three new 20-pin tinyAVR(R) Flash microcontroller devices with high-speed timers targeting battery chargers, sensor end-points and motor control ...
