Programming AVR Microcontrollers in C - O'Reilly Webcast

Originally recorded March 18, 2014. In this webcast, we'll dive straight into the deep end. I'll show you what you need to get started programming the AVR ATMega (and ATTiny) series microcontrollers, give you an overview of their built-in peripherals, and demonstrate most of the important functionality. And while the focus of this webcast is on Atmel's AVR series, nearly everything you'll learn here is transferable to other microcontrollers. 

Elliot Williams is a Ph.D. in Economics, a former government statistician, and a lifelong electronics hacker. He taught himself to program microcontrollers long before there was any such thing as an Arduino, and loves to spread the knowledge. Most recently, he is author of the Maker Media book "Make: AVR Programming, Learning to Write Software for Hardware", which is chock full of microcontroller-programming tidbits and thick enough to stun a rhino.

Internet of Things: Complexity of software for Sensor Fusion

On Tuesday, February 18, ARM hosted a live Google+ Hangout panel with executives from Atmel, Freescale and Sensor Platforms. read more HERE.


A sensor converts physical world characteristics into information that can then be processed using information technology tools. Sensor fusion is the process by which data points are combined from multiple sensors to yield the best estimate of the overall state of the system being observed. Battery life is the most critical measure for any device with built in sensors. Watch ARM's live Google+ Hangout on Air panel discussion with guests panelists from Atmel, Freescale, and Sensor Platforms. Our panelists will explore the various levels of software and hardware design techniques to address the opposing needs of low power and high software complexity.
