Procedure to Procure Atmel AVR parts 50% Discounted from DigiKey

• This discount is primarily for programmers. Some chips are also included.
• Find your part # on the DigiKey website.
• Call Digikey Volume sales @ 1-800-344-4539 ext.5834
  • Tell them that you are requesting a quote for whatever equipment/chips etc with the "AVR University program 50% discount". Use the name Eric Liebner as contact with the shipping address:
    Eric Liebner
    University of FL
    New Engineering Bldg.#33 Rm.236
    Gainesville, FL 32611
    
  • Tell them that we were referred to them by Kelly Gillund, if they have any questions. She is the Digikey AVR univ. program person there. By speaking to them in person, you can get quotes directly to your email, not Eric Liebner's. This will hopefully clear up any confusion on Eric's end, as he often receive quotes with no names given.
• When you get your email quote, forward a copy to Eric Liebner at ericl@ece.ufl.edu with a note at the top that states your name, that you are a senior design student, your email, and the part(s) you ordered, e.g.,
  Joe Bloe, 4924 Student
  email: Joe.Bloe@ufl.edu
  parts ordered: 1 box of glazed donuts
• Not all chips are supported right now. If a chip you need is not supported, you will have to pay full price.
