    Anyone here program Atmel AVR MCU's?

    Looking for someone to assist (ie, write the code) in a small project i've got going on, lemme know if you can help!

    Main Rig

    Intel Core i7-2600K (SLB8W, E0 Stepping) @ 4.6Ghz (4.6x100), Corsair H80i AIO Cooler
    MSI Z77A GD-65 Gaming (MS-7551), v25 BIOS
    Kingston HyperX 16GB (2x8GB) PC3-19200 Kit (HX24C11BRK2/16-OC) @ 1.5v, 11-13-13-30 Timings (1:8 Ratio)
    8GB MSI Radeon R9 390X (1080 Mhz Core, 6000 Mhz Memory)
    NZXT H440 Case with NZXT Hue+ Installed
    24" Dell U2412HM (1920x1200, e-IPS panel)
    1 x 500GB Samsung 850 EVO (Boot & Install)
    1 x 2Tb Hitachi 7K2000 in External Enclosure (Scratch Disk)


    Entertainment Setup

    Samsung Series 6 37" 1080p TV
    Gigabyte GA-J1800N-D2H based media PC, Mini ITX Case, Blu-Ray Drive
    Netgear ReadyNAS104 w/4x2TB Toshiba DTACA200's for 5.8TB Volume size

    I refuse to participate in any debate with creationists because doing so would give them the "oxygen of respectability" that they want.
    Creationists don't mind being beaten in an argument. What matters to them is that I give them recognition by bothering to argue with them in public.

    Don't have any experience of them myself, but have been thinking of using Arduino to start learning C and hack up some cool projects at the same time. Just out of interest, what are you trying to achieve, and with what hardware?

    Using an ATTiny2313. Trying to make a keycode start for the car. So you get in the car, put the key in the ignition, turn it to IGN, type in the code, and have the car start. Without the correct code, the car won't start. If the code entered is incorrect, it'll trigger the alarm.

    So basically, the ATTiny2313 has to trigger the output (ie, the starter relay) until it recieves an input from the ECU stating that the engine is started, so that it stops triggering the starter relay. If the input is recieved without the code having been entered, output #2 is triggered (the alarm, containing a GSM & GPS module to text cars status and location at 10 minute intervals).

    It's also got to drive a 2x16 character LCD - in order to relay messages, and *'s whenever any number is entered on the 4x3 keypad.

    Are you necessarily tied to the Atmel, or would you be willing to swap for an FPGA? If you'll do an FPGA, that'll give me an excuse to go ahead and buy that dev board and get to work on verilog.
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Rule 3:
    When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Random Tip o' the Whatever
    You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

    So what's the question? I work with embedded systems.

    You need good power supply for your AVR, since automotive onboard power is very dirty. Also I'd suggest better kit for this task, since tiny2313 isn't optimal here.

    Take a look at ATMEL Raven or ATMEL Butterfly kits.

    I can always use an ATMega8 if need be. And i have a smoothed power design that steps down from 12vdc to 5vdc. (78L05)

    Have purchased a few ATMEga8's, for the extra I/O - and i'm assuming coding for it is pretty much the same as for the 2313 - just with more available flash & memory?

    Also more peripherals available and lower power consumption
