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.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Making an Arduino shield can be simpler than you think. This time I designed one to program Attiny and Atmega microcontrollers, that way I don't have to use a breadboard and make the wiring to program ...

We’re happy to see Arduino enthusiasts championing the use of smaller hardware when the need for a full-blown ATmega-based board just isn’t there. [Chris] has been doing just that, using ATtiny85 ...

If you enjoy tinkering and building Arduino projects and gizmos, you might be interested in the new Adafruit Gemma device which has been created by Adafruit and includes a tiny wearable platform board ...
