Class 5 - We'll get even more hands-on AVR assembly experience by writing a complete program from scratch, learning how to set up and utilize the built-in AVR Timer peripherals.

Final Project Instructions - please tag your project with AVRPong
(For those who would like a Certificate of Completion from HackadayU, this must be completed by March 31st, 2021).

And so it ended. A fantastic course, a very knowledgable instructor, the format "constrained" (possibly enhanced, rather ) by the web, and it was a torrent of information. If  I had not known about half (or threequarter) of the stuff before, I would have been overloaded and lost it. Uri was very helpfull both during class and office hours, and then still more on the discord channel.

I'd like to suggest a follow up session after a few weeks - sometime before the Final Project completion close. It really should be a class plenum. I am thinking of the challenges when switching to RealLife circuits (there are no glitches or blue smoke in a simulator ;-) ), or using the real/raw toolchain (i.e. calling the gcc compiler, the avr obj dump, the uploader). What other students find fascinating/struggling with would be interesting to know, too.

The live version of this course has ended. However, the class videos from this course will be uploaded to Hackaday's Youtube page in a few weeks. New courses will be starting in Spring!
