Atmega32 Features

AVR  is a modified Harvard architecture 8-bit RISC single chip microcontroller which was developed by Atmel.

The AVR was one of the first microcontroller families to use on-chip flash memory for program storage, as opposed to one-time programmable ROM, EPROM, or EEPROM used by other microcontrollers at the time.

Here are the features of Atmega32 one of the chips of AVR family.
