1- Software Used:
# Name
1 WinAVR
2 AVR Studio 6.x
3 AVR Tool Chain (optional)

2- Setup of WinAVR:
WinAVRis not just one tool. WinAVR is a set of tools, these tools include avr-gcc (the command line
compiler), avr-libc (the c ompiler library that is essential for avrgcc), avr-as (the assembler), avrdude(the
programming interface), avarice (JTAG ICE interface), avr-gdb (the de-bugger), programmers notepad
(editor)and a few others.
These tools are all compiled for Microsoft Windows and put together with a nice installer program.
We will not use WINAVR as compiler we just want the integrated toolchain with it to be use with the
AVR Studio 6.x that we will use to build our projects.

1-Download WinAVR from link below :
