We use part of the excellent material from "CSE P567, Design and Implementation of Digital Systems (Winter 2010)"
by Carl Ebeling, Computer Science and Engineering Program, University of Washington

• Lecture 6: Introduction to the ATmega328 and Arduino
• Lecture 7: ATmega328 Timers and Interrupts

From the introduction to ATmege328 (“Lecture 6”) we just need:

• AVR register file: some discussions
• AVR memory
• Interrupts
• I/O ports, pin circuity

We don't need:

• Addressing modes
• Instructions

Let us work on Arduino Timer Interrupts based on material from instructables
