Pete Brown's Blog (POKE 53280,0)
Pete Brown writes on a variety of topics from XAML with the Windows Runtime (WinRT), .NET programming using C#, WPF, Microcontroller programming with .NET Microframework, .NET Gadgeteer, Windows on Devices, and even plain old C, to raising two children in the suburbs of Maryland, woodworking, CNC and generally "making physical stuff". Oh, and Pete loves retro technology, especially Commodore (C64 and C128). If the content interests you, please subscribe using the subscription link to the right of every page.

In this Part 1 post, I'll show how to interface with ATmega
ports and pins to light up LEDs on a board. The follow-up post will
show how to use the timer to actually blink the LED.
Most of the Microcontroller code out in the public is C or
Assembly. I have nothing personal against assembly or C (and may
end up using a little assembly in the future), but I decided I
wanted to write C++...

In the wee hours of the night, I've been continuing to learn how
to develop for the various AVR family chips from Atmel. I also do a
lot with NETMF, Netduino, and the .NET Gadgeteer, but sometimes
(despite the pain!) it feels good to code right on the metal.
Introductory/getting started information for the AVR family is
not always the easiest to find, so this post covers a few other

As much as I like the .NET Micro Framework, and especially the
.NET Gadgeteer line, I've been itching to try a little C/C++
for specific functions on boards. Consider things like chip
controllers and stuff to offload work from the main micro
controller, much like all those chips on your PC motherboard are
doing to help the CPU. Generally, this is not a
job for the .NET Micro Framew...
