Atmelprovides AVR Studio [9], which is a free integrated development environment (IDE) that supportscompiling of AVR assembly or C (with gcc-avr), and debugging. The debugger allows forviewing program, data, I/O, and register memories as each instruction is executed. The IDE isvery similar to Microsoft’s Visual Studio IDE which all of our students have used in a previousprogramming course. This greatly reduced their learning
