Arduino-Lite: lightweight AVR library

The RoboPeak Project has developed a lightweight AVR library known as Arduino-Lite. The code is a lightweight high-performance firmware library for AVR MCUs developed based on the original Arduino project. In addition to the usual Atmega8, 168, 328 and 1280, it also supports the Attiny2313, Attiny26, Atmega48 and Atmega88. Its developers claim that compared to the original library, Arduino-Lite generates smaller binaries and perform faster. Arduino-Lite supports clock frequencies from 1 to 20 MHz. The project’s code is self-contained, requiring no third-party tools, compilers or library dependencies.

You can find all the details in the first and second installments of the RoboPeak tutorial.

The open source Arduino-Lite can be downloaded at Google Code.
