,History of AVR
• AVR was developed in the year 1996 by Atmel Corporation.
• The architecture of AVR was developed by Alf-Egil Bogen and Vega
Wollan.
• AVR derives its name from its developers and stands
for Alf-Egil Bogen Vegard Wollan RISC microcontroller
,History of AVR
also known as Advanced Virtual RISC.
The AT90S8515 was the first microcontroller which was based on A
architecture.
the first microcontroller to hit the commercial market was AT90S1
in the year 1997.
, AVR microcontrollers categories
TinyAVR :
Less memory, small size, suitable only for simpler applications
MegaAVR :
These are the most popular ones having good amount of memory (up to 256
KB), higher number of inbuilt peripherals and suitable for moderate to comple
applications.
XmegaAVR :
Used commercially for complex applications, which require large program
memory and high speed.
