The tutorial is fairly straightforward, and even demonstrates how the Arduino can be used as an ISP for the ATtiny, removing the need to purchase a standalone programmer.

We found this Arduino AVR ISP programmer particularly interesting. AVR microcontrollers can utilize an interface called In-System-Programming. ISP allows the chip to be programmed or reprogrammed ...

Like the people in and surrounding Raspberry Pi, clever souls in and clustered around Arduino have done all sorts of things, including worked out ways for one Arduino to programme another Arduino – ...

Write the programme – called ‘sketch’ in Arduino speak (you do have to add ATtiny85 capability to the standard Arduino software – easy, see SparkFun link below). Re-programme the Uno as a programmer, ...

Sometimes you don't need a large microcontroller to get your work done. In this installment, TK teaches us how to use the ATtiny combined with Arduino to use the PWM function found on this chip.

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

Arduino, the world's leading open-source hardware and software platform, today announced the launch of its next-generation UNO board, a significant re ...
