AVR Libc is a Free Software project whose goal is to provide a high quality C library for use with GCC on Atmel AVR microcontrollers.

Together, avr-binutils, avr-gcc, and avr-libc form the heart of the Free Software toolchain for the Atmel AVR microcontrollers.

They are further accompanied by projects for in-system programming software (avrdude), simulation (simulavr) and debugging (avr-gdb, AVaRICE).

AVR Libc is licensed under a single unified license. This so-called modified Berkeley license is intented to be compatible with most Free Software licenses like the GPL, yet impose as little restrictions for the use of the library in closed-source commercial applications as possible.

For more information on this project, try http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/avr-libc/.

Note: The files have been compressed with the bzip2 compression utility, as this saves a fair amount of space, compared to the inflate method used by old GNU zip and standard Zip. For the PDF documentation file, the space saving is about 20 % (or 100 KB). Recent versions of WinZip are supposed to be able to handle this compression method. Free binaries for many platforms are also available from the bzip2 home page.
