AVR is a family of microcontrollers developed by Atmel beginning in 1996. These are modified Harvard architecture 8-bit RISC single-chip microcontrollers. ATmega series are one of the types of AVR microcontrollers with features like 4–256 KB program memory, 28–100-pin package, extended instruction set, and extensive peripheral set. These special features help students, hobbyists and engineers make innovative AVR projects. Let’s take a look at few interesting AVR

Display is the necessary part of any machine whether it is any home appliance or industrial machines. Display not only shows the control options to operate the machine but also shows the status and output of the task performed by that machine. There are many types of displays used in electronics like 7-segment display, 16×2 LCD display, TFT

Stepper Motors are DC brushless motors which can rotate from 00 to 3600 in steps. Stepper motor uses electronic signals to rotate the motor in steps and each signal rotates the shaft in fixed increment (one step). The rotation angel is controlled by applying certain sequence of signals. Unlike Servo Motor, stepper motors can be driven by
