Welcome to the World of ATMEL's AVR Microcontrollers

ATMEL High-Speed, Low Power, Low Cost 8Bit RISC Flash Microcontroller

If you’re looking for ways to get better designs to market faster, start designing with Atmel’s AVR family of Microcontroller. Atmel’s AVR offers you an exceptional combination of performance, flexibility and power management. The architecture of the AVRs gives you 16-bit performance at 8-bit price.

It has an enhanced RISC core running single-cycle instructions and a well-defined I/O structure that limits the need for external components. So it’s not only easier to use, it delivers blazing execution of up to 32 MIPS.

And when you consider AVR’s outstanding Flash and EEPROM capability, plus its huge range of packaging, peripherals, memory sizes, power management modes and development tools, there’s almost no limit to what you can design. From complex battery operated applications to industrial controls, and a whole lot more in between.

Key features:
	Single cycle 8-bit RISC architecture High computing power at low power consumption Suitable for battery applications Low prices, small packages  Full industrial temperature grade (-40°C…+85°C) High peripheral integration  High memory integration up to 256 Kbyte Flash, 16 Kbyte SRAM and 4 Kbyte EEPROM Self Programming Memory One toolchain for all AVR products
		Devices range from 512 bytes to 256K bytes Pin count range from 6 to 100 Full code compatibility Pin/feature compatible families One set of development tools
