[Scott] is a big fan of the Arduino platform, and he’s not afraid to admit it. It does all the things he needs, but now and again he would like to use something a bit smaller, without all the bells ...

Following on from getting an Arduino programme to run on an 8pin ATtiny (ATtiny85), I need to invoke the in-built brown-out reset circuit – because my application involves running from an ...

Planning another Arduino build? If you’re just doing something simple like switching a relay or powering a LED, you might want to think about the Digispark. It’s a very small ATtiny-based Arduino ...

Making an Arduino shield can be simpler than you think. This time I designed one to program Attiny and Atmega microcontrollers, that way I don't have to use a breadboard and make the wiring to program ...

Being new to Arduino, but having one project under my belt, I though I would try another. I wanted to play with a high-speed PWM – of which the 8pin ATtiny85 (or ..25 or ..45 – different flash only) ...

Making a servo tester using an Attiny85 micro chip, Attiny45 also works for this project. This diy servo tester is as good as any other servo tester, the difference is that it can be programmed to do ...

Maker and developers looking for a tiny Arduino development board might be interested in The Nanite 85, which could possibly be the world’s smallest ATtiny85 based Arduino derivative development board ...

Anyone who would like to learn Arduino programming and more about the fantastic electronic development platform which is fun and easy-to-use to create a wide variety of different projects. Maybe worth ...

I've been interested in getting into microcontroller programming lately, and I've been looking at Microchips PIC16F and PIC18F series (especially the PIC16F), and also Atmel's ATtiny and ATmega series ...
