As I did not realise that Arduino is a quick route to getting a stand-alone 8pin microcontroller – an Atmel ATtiny85 – to do something useful. You don’t get all of the functions and performance of an ...

Celebrating little victories means a nice cup of tea as I managed to transfer an Arduino programme into an AVR ATtiny85 microcontroller. Like the people in and surrounding Raspberry Pi, clever souls ...

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 ...

When writing code for the ATtiny family of microcontrollers such as a the ATtiny85 or ATtiny10, people usually use one of two methods: they either add support for the chip in the Arduino IDE, or they ...

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 ...

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 ...

Arduino is so much about what is made with Arduino boards that we hardly spare a thought for the boards themselves. Well, Arduino cares, and they've just gone about redesigning their base model, now ...
