If you are entering into the world of
building robotics, remote controlled vehicles or just inventing your
own electronic circuits, then you will need to find good components to
work with. Bascom AVR will help to solve that situation, and allow you
to go on an express your innovative ideas in a physical form. AVR
microcontrollers are highly popular chips to use for circuitry. They
are so versatile, efficient, as well as being a programmers and
developers dream because they offer so much flexibility and function in
their setup. Connectable to a personal computer, the AVR
microcontroller can be access and configured just the way you want it
to be done. All this, combined with power of its delivery, has made AVR
architecture and technology a great success.
An AVR project will comprise of many components, and from the
development kits you will be able to work you way up to knowing just
what components you will need to build your circuit. Of course the
circuit itself will come with a specific function, a job to do, so
ideally you will want it to do that job in the most efficient and
effective way possible. Bascom AVR can help fulfill all of the needs
and requirements that you may have, with quality components which range
from boards, to chips,
programmers and connectors. With fast clock
speeds, AVR microcontrollers are great for your circuitry and backing
them up with great components will give your plans that greatest
opportunity of success.
AVR architecture was originally developed by two Norwegian students,
but was picked up by Atmel who continued with the development of the
technology. The main difference was that AVR introduced flash memory
technology into the world of microcontrollers. Because flash memory is
non-volatile and rewritable, it paved the way for programs to be stored
on the microcontrollers, as well as not having to rely on memory
sources from external components. The architecture was based on an
older Harvard 8bit RISC single chip, which was already designed to run
as efficiently as possible with simplified and stripped back language
code. RISC (reduced instruction set computer) still had its place in
the newer version of the rewritable flash memory microcontrollers.
Bascom AVR will back up the Atmel AVR by providing the components which
the latter will be able to drive. AVR microcontrollers are fully
customizable through software on
a personal computer. All coding can be compiled and uploaded while the
circuitry is in place, and debugging can be a good learning curve to
iron out problems. All this functionality, along with power, speed and
efficiency, continues to make AVR a huge success.
