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 ...

Using an ATTiny because you ran out of pins when it only has 8 pins, so two for power, two for i2c you are only left with 4 pins, not very useful and the argument you can place the ATTiny at a ...

Anyway, the set-up I used for programming the ATtiny85 is also suitable for programming the 14pin ATtiny84 but, oh woe, my project needs one more pin than is available on the ATtiny84. Frustratingly, ...

The ATtiny x41 series is a more advanced version of the ATtiny 84. It is pin compatible, though available only in surface mount packages, and offers an incredible array of peripherals, whilest costing ...

Features of the Arduino Learning Kit ATTiny85 and Programmer Board : – Support For the Arduino IDE 1.0+ (OSX/Win/Linux). – Power via USB or External Source – 5v or 7-35v (Automatic Selection).

[Ralph] wasn’t satisfied with the required 5 control pins to drive his nrf24l01+ transceiver module, so he used this circuit needing just 3 pin using an ATtiny85. One of the key components wa… ...

The ATtiny x8-family is intended as a low cost option compatible with the popular ATmega x8 series. As such, they have a nearly identical pinout (with a couple of extra GPIO pins in the TQFP version).

The tiny Nanite 85 Arduino development board was created as a fun project after its creator Tim had seen the Digispark and, subsequentally, the Adafruit Trinket were announced.
