Arduino

Arduino is an Italian open-source hardware and software company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for building digital devices. AVR Butterfly and Arduino are robotics hardware.

See AVR Butterfly and Arduino

Atmel

Atmel Corporation was a creator and manufacturer of semiconductors before being subsumed by Microchip Technology in 2016.

See AVR Butterfly and Atmel

AVR microcontrollers

AVR is a family of microcontrollers developed since 1996 by Atmel, acquired by Microchip Technology in 2016. AVR Butterfly and AVR microcontrollers are Atmel microcontrollers.

See AVR Butterfly and AVR microcontrollers

Bootloader

A bootloader, also spelled as boot loader or called bootstrap loader, is a computer program that is responsible for booting a computer.

See AVR Butterfly and Bootloader

Byte

The byte is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits.

See AVR Butterfly and Byte

C (programming language)

C (pronounced – like the letter c) is a general-purpose programming language.

See AVR Butterfly and C (programming language)

Data logger

A data logger (also datalogger or data recorder) is an electronic device that records data over time or about location either with a built-in instrument or sensor or via external instruments and sensors.

See AVR Butterfly and Data logger

EEPROM

EEPROM or E2PROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory) is a type of non-volatile memory.

See AVR Butterfly and EEPROM

Flash memory

Flash memory is an electronic non-volatile computer memory storage medium that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed.

See AVR Butterfly and Flash memory

Fourteen-segment display

A fourteen-segment display (FSD) (sometimes referred to as a starburst display or Union Jack display) is a type of display based on 14 segments that can be turned on or off to produce letters and numerals.

See AVR Butterfly and Fourteen-segment display

In-system programming

In-system programming (ISP), or also called in-circuit serial programming (ICSP), is the ability of some programmable logic devices, microcontrollers, chipsets and other embedded devices to be programmed while installed in a complete system, rather than requiring the chip to be programmed prior to installing it into the system.

See AVR Butterfly and In-system programming

Input/output

In computing, input/output (I/O, i/o, or informally io or IO) is the communication between an information processing system, such as a computer, and the outside world, such as another computer system, peripherals, or a human operator.

See AVR Butterfly and Input/output

Integrated development environment

An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities for software development.

See AVR Butterfly and Integrated development environment

Joystick

A joystick, sometimes called a flight stick, is an input device consisting of a stick that pivots on a base and reports its angle or direction to the device it is controlling.

See AVR Butterfly and Joystick

JTAG

JTAG (named after the Joint Test Action Group which codified it) is an industry standard for verifying designs of and testing printed circuit boards after manufacture.

See AVR Butterfly and JTAG

Kilobyte

The kilobyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information.

See AVR Butterfly and Kilobyte

Liquid-crystal display

A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers.

See AVR Butterfly and Liquid-crystal display

Megabit

The megabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information.

See AVR Butterfly and Megabit

Microcontroller

A microcontroller (MC, UC, or μC) or microcontroller unit (MCU) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit.

See AVR Butterfly and Microcontroller

Name tag

A name tag is a badge or sticker worn on the outermost clothing as a means of displaying the wearer's name for others to view.

See AVR Butterfly and Name tag

Nuts and Volts

Nuts and Volts is a bimonthly American magazine published by T&L Publications since 1980 covering a broad variety of electronics, circuitry, and robotics technologies, self-described as targeting the "hands-on hobbyist, design engineer, technician, and experimenter" audience.

See AVR Butterfly and Nuts and Volts

Prescaler

A prescaler is an electronic counting circuit used to reduce a high frequency electrical signal to a lower frequency by integer division.

See AVR Butterfly and Prescaler

Real-time clock

A real-time clock (RTC) is an electronic device (most often in the form of an integrated circuit) that measures the passage of time.

See AVR Butterfly and Real-time clock

Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive

The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS 1), short for Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, was adopted in February 2003 by the European Union.

See AVR Butterfly and Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive

RS-232

In telecommunications, RS-232 or Recommended Standard 232 is a standard originally introduced in 1960 for serial communication transmission of data.

See AVR Butterfly and RS-232

Serial port

A serial port is a serial communication interface through which information transfers in or out sequentially one bit at a time.

See AVR Butterfly and Serial port

Single-board microcontroller

A single-board microcontroller is a microcontroller built onto a single printed circuit board.

See AVR Butterfly and Single-board microcontroller
