Sure.  I don't think the programming on this is difficult, and the data
sheet practically gives you the basics.  All that would be needed is to
build the same circuit that Raphael posted except to use what's in the AVR
datasheet instead of the MIC502.  I would need to order some parts, but if I
get a protoype working, I'll be sure and post it.
