[work] — Codevision Avr 2.05.0 Professional
Configure 8-bit and 16-bit timers, prescalers, and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) outputs.
CodeWizard reduces peripheral setup time to minutes.
CodeVisionAVR 2.05.0 Professional remains a specialized, powerful, and reliable tool for AVR developers. While newer alternatives exist, its robust Project Wizard and efficient code generation for older and mid-range ATmega/ATtiny chips ensure its continued relevance in the embedded development community. CodeVision AVR 2.05.0 Professional
One of its most hailed features, the Wizard, allows users to select their chip type, clock frequency, and configure peripherals (Timers, UART, ADC, LCD, SPI, etc.) through a graphical interface. It then automatically generates the necessary C code to initialize these peripherals, allowing developers to focus on the application logic immediately.
At its core, CodeVisionAVR is a comprehensive suite consisting of a C cross-compiler, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), and the renowned CodeWizardAVR Automatic Program Generator, all specifically tailored for the Atmel (now Microchip) AVR family of microcontrollers. The Professional edition was the fully-featured commercial version, providing access to all the compiler's optimization levels, advanced libraries, and unrestricted code size limits, distinguishing it from the evaluation or lesser editions.

Modern IDEs often neglect tiny AVRs (e.g., ATtiny10, ATtiny13). CodeVisionAVR has excellent support for these low-pin-count chips, with proper handling of limited RAM (as low as 32 bytes).
Right-click the installer → "Run as Administrator" to ensure proper USB driver registration. While newer alternatives exist, its robust Project Wizard
CodeWizard generates the project skeleton. The developer then inserts their custom application logic inside the main program loop or within the automatically created Interrupt Service Routines (ISRs).
Unlike the free AVR-GCC , the Professional version requires a paid license.
The IDE will automatically populate the workspace with structured initialization code. Advantages of Version 2.05.0 Professional
CodeVision names interrupts via standard vector names:
