Hi all,
We have the ability using the LabVIEW Microprocessor SDK to write LabVIEW VI's that can be targeted to any 32-bit microprocessor with a C-based toolchain. The way it works is that we take LabVIEW code written with a fairly large subset of the palettes and convert it to C code. This C code is then passed to the C compiler from the embedded target's toolchain. We have a number of pre-configured targets that ship with the product which have already been configured for their respective toolchains, but if you wanted to move to a custom target you would need go through that porting process yourself.
We also have a full-featured, out-of-the-box module for targetting specific 32-bit processors from Analog Devices, called the LabVIEW Embedded Module for Blackfin Processors.
We don't, however, have a product geared towards programming 8-bit microcontrollers. Are you able to use a 32-bit chip, or is bumping up to a microprocessor overkill for your application?
If you find yourself with more questions about the capabilities of LabVIEW to work with embedded targets, keep in mind that we have a LabVIEW Embedded board on the forum that is geared specifically towards those types of questions.

For reference, we have since released the LabVIEW Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers to target the 32-bit ARM architecture.
