library's compatible with other Atmel controllers?

Hi all,

This is a stupid one to ask i think but if i would replace the a arduino ic with another variant would the library's still work? (not IDE).

I think they should be compatible with most Atmel controllers or am i wrong?

You need to say which Atmel (now Microchip) MCU that you are thinking of using. There are Arduino "cores" for many of them, but not all of them.

By "Arduino IC", people usually mean ATmega328 which is the MCU on Uno's and a lot of variants. Atmel make a lot of controllers, many totally incompatible with ATmega328.

So the degree of compatibility is anywhere in the range 10% to 100%. The only way to give a better answer is to specify exactly which chip the library needs to run.

I like the SAM3X8E (Due) but its overkill so i would like something like the ATSAMD09C13A just because its close and does not have that many io's

I have never used (or needed) any of those "high-powered" microprocessors. I think if I needed more capability than one of the 16MHz Atmegas I would be considering an RPi - perhaps in conjunction with a 16MHz Arduino.

If you are looking at Cortex M0, why not SAMD21? Arduino Official Store | Boards Shields Kits Accessories
