What is Atmel AVR?

AVR is the name of the family of microcontrollers designed by the Atmel company and introduced to the market in 1996. They designed these microcontrollers with the RISC command set on the modified Harvard architecture. Microcontrollers are 8-Bit and, as an exception, it produced in 32-bit models in a period. It is one of the most widely used microcontrollers in many embedded systems and especially in hobby circuits, and forms the basis of Arduino. ...

What is Arduino Optiboot?

Hi all!! Introducing Optiboot! When you look at the photo below, you can see “What is Optiboot? but this is the place..” 😁 Yes, the part you see is called Optiboot. So what is this Optiboot? It is a small and fast bootloader for Arduino and other Atmel AVR chips. Arduino owes much of its ease of use to its bootloader. The bootloader is software built into the Atmega microcontroller that is responsible for making it easy to upload a new draft from the Arduino IDE to the microcontroller’s memory. ...

About the 16x2 LCD Screen Big Guide 2

I highly recommend checking out the Big Guide 1 before looking at this blog! 😉 Required Materials: Arduino Uno (Arduino Nano, Arduino Mega etc.) Breadboard 16×2 LCD Screen (Green or Blue) 😄 Assorted Men-Male Jumper Cable 10KΩ Potentiometer (For backlight counter, optional) 220RΩ (We will use in the examples) LCD and Arduino Connections The diagram of the pins on the LCD we use is as follows. We have 16 pins on our LCD screen. Depending on the screen we are going to use, the pins can be on the top, bottom, or both sides of the screen. Some very rare screens have 14 pins because there is no backlighting light. Pins 15 and 16 are used to light up the backlight on displays with display lighting. The backlights are separate from the LCD, so we can use the pin of the backlight by plugging it into a digital port. The connections from each pin to the Arduino will be the same, but it can arrange differently you can pins via the LCD. You can look at the LCD’s datasheet for this. ...
