For the last thirty or so years, the demoscene community has been stretching what is possible on computer systems with carefully crafted assembly and weird graphical tricks. What’s more impressive is ...

[Quinn Dunki] got some free stuff from Element14 to evaluate, including this Mircrochip WiFi module. It’s been used as the centerpiece of an Arduino shield in the past, and she grabbed a copy of that ...

Most of the AVR ATtiny microcontrollers can be programmed with this small board which can also be used in a standalone application which building a project. Most of the AVR ATtiny microcontrollers can ...

A new project soon to be available via the Crowd Supply website has been unveiled this week in the form of the ATtiny Flasher, an open hardware flashing tool specifically designed for the Atmel ATtiny ...

Providing a quick start for projects with 8 and 20 pin AVR microcontrollers is the main purpose of building these tiny controller boards. Providing a quick start for projects with 8 and 20 pin AVR ...

Mouser Electronics, Inc. is now stocking the ATtiny104 Xplained Nano from Atmel. Designed as an evaluation kit for Atmel’s recently launched ATtiny102 and ATtiny104 8-bit AVR microcontrollers, the ...

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 ...

Atmel has introduced its smallest microcontroller range. ATtiny4, 5, 9 and 10 come in a 2x2x0.6mm 8pad UDFN package weighing less than 8mg “to reduce the package size as much as 55% compared to the ...

Expanding the ATtiny microcontroller (MCU) family are three six-pin picoPower AVR devices: the ATtiny4, ATtiny5, and ATtiny9. They are pin- and code- compatible and execute code at speeds up to 12 ...
