The AVR microcontroller and Embedded systems: Using Assembly and C

The AVR microcontroller from Atmel (now Microchip) is one of the most widely used 8-bit microcontrollers in the world. In this book the authors use a step-by-step and systematic approach to show the programming of the AVR chip. Examples in both Assembly language and C show how to program many of the AVR features, such as timers, serial communication, ADC, SPI, I2C, and PWM. The text is organized into two parts 1) The first 6 chapters use Assembly language programming to examine the internal architecture of the AVR. 2) Chapters 7-18 uses both Assembly and C to show the AVR peripherals and I/O interfacing to real-world devices such as LCD, motor, and sensor. This book was previously published by Pearson. Now, it is available through Amazon at a lower price. Since the Amazon books have a 630-page limit, some sections of Chapter 8, Section 18-5, and the Appendices of the book are uploaded to the following website and are freely available in PDF format: http://www.microdigitaled.com/AVR/AVR_book_v1.htm
