we are always interested in Latest Arduino Newsand if you share the same curiosity, you’re in luck. Join Make Wizard Bob Martin from Microchip to stay up to date on the latest developments in the Arduino/Maker Space ecosystem.
This technical presentation describes the new AVR Dx microcontroller family supported by Arduino. This includes several new devices such as its popular successor, the AVR64DU32. 32U4 16U2 AVR Microcontroller with USB. Learn about updates to development tools, including Visual Studio Code plugin support and upcoming debugging tools. Bob also provides information on the latest low-cost development kits.
This talk will focus on 8-bit AVR. 8-bit AVR is suitable for beginners and applications where low power consumption is important. However, it is by no means lazy when it comes to performance. As Bob says, “the Adafruit Neopixel library for AVR just doesn’t keep up with the speed we’re getting,” so we had to write our own Neopixel library.
we went talk to bob martin a long time ago Atmel was acquired. After all, he’s Microchip’s Make wizard with over 30 years of experience in embedded systems design. He is an avid maker himself, particularly involved in environmental monitoring projects and mentoring students at high schools and engineering schools across the country.
