I highly recommend the following:

Designing Embedded Hardware. by John Catsoulis. Expensive but worth it.

BASCOM (software)- The basic compiler for AVR. Very similar to Basic Stamp
http://mcselec.com/bascom-avr.htm
BASCOM Programming of MicroControllers with ease.  By Claus Kuhnel. This is
the book about the compiler. Not deep enough, but a good starter book.

Subject: [AVR-Chat] intro books covering ATMega


Hi. I'm teaching an intro class to embedded processor applications.
The first part of the class used the Parallax Basic stamp, which is
based on the PIC. I'm planning on using one of the ATMega's (8535,
16, or 32. What I'm looking for is any intro to AVR books that cover
the ATMega line. I'm going to have the students use a processor in a
breadboard, no pre-made boards, so I'm only looking at processors
that come in 40 pin DIPS and have analog inputs. If anyone knows of a
book that covers any of these processors I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
