AVR® 8-Bit RISC - High Performance

• True RISC architecture
• True single cycle execution
• One MIPS per MHz
• 32 general purpose registers
• Harvard architecture

With only a one-stage pipeline, the AVR® brings fast, single-clock-cycle-per-instruction execution to the table - just as you would expect from any true RISC architecture machine.

AVR Flash microcontrollers operate with clock rates up to 20 MHz, achieving close to 20 MIPS. With 32 general purpose registers, the AVR delivers unmatched performance and flexibility, especially when you program in high-level languages, like C, Pascal or Basic.
