I think finding out how to program a new microcontroller for the first time without proper documentation can be one of the most painful tasks in embedded systems. This task mostly involves finding ...

This repository contains a project for an Arduino hat PCB for downloading a bootloader onto an ATtiny85 microcontroller and a PCB-based USB device for directly sending code to the ATtiny85. All PCB ...

The creative adventures with ATtiny series microcontroller are awesome if you know how to play them. ATtinys — especially the ATtiny85s — are all around us, and by using one, we can shrink the size of ...

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 ...

Having had such quick success making a microcontroller project using an 8pin ATtiny85 and programming it with Arduino, I though I would try a more elaborate project, one that has been on the back ...

In an ideal scenario, a battery should have zero internal resistance. But batteries are not made perfect and the electrodes are not 100% conductive, which creates a small resistance within the battery ...

Not [Wayne Holder], that’s for sure. He writes in to let us know about a project he’s been working on for a while that allows you to debug the execution of code on an Arduino with a second Arduino. In ...

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 ...

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 ...
