1 | AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, | |
2 | designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular | |
3 | emphasis on low power consumption and high code density. The AVR32 | |
4 | architecture is not binary compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR | |
5 | architectures. | |
6 | ||
7 | The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described | |
8 | by the AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from | |

10 | http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf | |
11 | ||
12 | A GNU toolchain with support for AVR32, along with non-GNU programming | |
13 | and debugging support, can be downloaded from | |
14 | ||
15 | http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=4118 | |
16 | ||
17 | A full set of u-boot, kernel and filesystem images can be built using | |
18 | buildroot. This will also produce a working toolchain which can be | |
19 | used instead of the official GNU toolchain above. A customized version | |
20 | of buildroot for AVR32 can be downloaded here: | |

24 | The AVR32 ports of u-boot, the Linux kernel, the GNU toolchain and | |
25 | other associated software are actively supported by Atmel Corporation. |
