While some small AVRs are not directly supported by the C compiler since they do not have a RAM-based stack (and some do not even have RAM at all), it is possible anyway to use the general-purpose registers as a RAM replacement since they are mapped into the data memory region. Bruce D. Lightner wrote an excellent description of how to do this, and offers this together with a toolkit on his web page: http://lightner.net/avr/ATtinyAvrGcc.html Back to FAQ Index.
