-# Atmel AVR
+# Compatible Microcontrollers
-QMK should run on any Atmel AVR processor with enough Flash. It has been tested on the following:
+QMK runs on any USB-capable AVR or ARM microcontroller with enough flash space - generally 32kB or more, though it will *just* squeeze into 16kB with most features disabled.
-* ATmega32U4 ([PJRC Teensy 2.0](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/))
-* AT90USB1286 ([PJRC Teensy++ 2.0](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/))

-* ATmega32U2
-* AT90USB1286, 646, 647 should work
-* AT90USB162 testing...
+## Atmel AVR
-NOTE: To enable full features of firmware you'll need 32KB flash size.
+The following use [LUFA](https://www.fourwalledcubicle.com/LUFA.php) as the USB stack:

+Certain MCUs which do not have native USB will use [V-USB](https://www.obdev.at/products/vusb/index.html) instead:
-You can also use any ARM processor that [ChibiOS](http://www.chibios.org) supports. The following processors have been tested:

+## Atmel ATSAM
+
+There is limited support for one of Atmel's ATSAM microcontrollers, that being the [ATSAMD51J18A](https://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/ATSAMD51J18A) used by the [Massdrop keyboards](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/massdrop).
