Arduino for other Chips
The Arduino IDE can be configured to program a variety of microcontrollers, not just the ones found on the standard Arduino boards. However, while this capability is possible for many other chips, not all have been documented. This page contains links for configuring the Arduino IDE to program other microcontrollers.
