In life and embedded systems timing is everything. Give [Frank’s] web-based timer calculator a try. Set your system clock resolution (in hertz making sure you account for any system clock divider), ...

Atmel’s picoPower AVR ATtiny10 has 1Kbytes of programmable Flash memory, and 32bytes of internal SRAM. The 6-pin device has up to 12 MIPS of processing throughput, an 8-bit A/D converter, an analog ...

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 ...

The need for timing in embedded programming often exceeds the small number of available hardware timers in microcontrollers. For example, the Microchip PIC16F84A has one timer, but you can create as ...

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 ...
