In Practical AVR Microcontrollers, you'll learn how to use the AVR microcontroller to make your own nifty projects and gadgets. You'll start off with the basics in part one: setting up your development environment and learning how the "naked" AVR differs from the Arduino. Then you'll gain experience by building a few simple gizmos and learning how everything can be interconnected.

In part two, we really get into the goodies: projects Each project will show you exactly what software and hardware you need, and will provide enough detail that you can adapt it to your own...
