Yes. The AVR is responsible for a number of things, including PWM and encoder
reading on the motor ports (IMS), the reading of the front panel button state,
power management, and A/D from the input lines for analog sensors. It is not
reprogrammable from the USB port. Think of it as a "helper processor".

Strangely enough, the AVR does NOT read motor encoders, the lines coming from
the encoder directly enter the ARM processor...
