Hi Vasi, 2010/12/18 funlw65(Vasi) <[email protected]>: > What is with AVR availability on the market? Devices are hard to find > and expensive? Which is the truth? I'm not sure. Microchip has many differerent devices and atmel only seems to have 'a few'. With the current arduino hype, it is pretty easy to get all kind of boards with this chips for low prices. And these boards can be used without the arduino gui and wire overhead. And for atxmega: I have one of these:http://www.alvidi.de/shop/product_info.php?language=en&info=p18_AVR-ATxmega-Entwicklungsmodul-mit-ATxmega128A1.html Powerfull processor, extra 8MByte memory (only 64kbyte supported transparantly by the toolchain I use, but that's still a lot) and sd card socket...

They have many devices to choose from and add devices in a high pace. I guess this is good since they have the right device for each high-volumne project (that is: the device that is just large enough so you don't pay for unused features). On the other hand, it prevents any of them to become a standard... Joep -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group.
