ATtiny84A

The high-performance, Microchip's picoPower® 8-bit AVR® RISC-based microcontroller combines 8KB ISP flash memory, 512-Byte EEPROM, 512-Byte SRAM, 12 general purpose I/O lines, 32 general purpose working registers, an 2 timers/counters (8-bit/16-bit) with two PWM channels each, internal and external interrupts, 8-channel 10-bit A/D converter, programmable gain stage (1x, 20x) for 12 differential ADC channel pairs, programmable watchdog timer with internal oscillator, internal calibrated oscillator, and four software selectable power saving modes. The device operates between 1.8-5.5 volts. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the device achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz, balancing power consumption and processor speed.

Project  Game Card

Game Card

“A $15 game console the size of a business card that plays multiple games via cartridges. The Game-Card is game console with the dimensions of a typical business card (3.5x2”). Unlike most small Arduino game consoles, the Game Card …

Frequency Probe

“The Frequency Probe is a handheld tool designed to help you debug your circuits by giving a visual indication of the frequency or voltage at the probe. For a periodic waveform it gives a digital readout of the frequency, with …

Bread Board Wristwatch

“Here’s a fun project making a geeky wristwatch, using the QDSP-6064 bubble LED display. The clock components are plugged in to a “breadboard”. These type of boards are usually used for prototyping electronic circuits. Now you can have …

Hiking Data Logger Using RFM69CW

“This hiking data logger is used to record a hike’s location, start and end time, temperature, altitude and barometric pressures. It will also audibly report altitude milestones during the hike. Even if you have no interest in hiking you …

Yet Another Smart Dice (YASD)

“What is YASD? Another new electronic dice with smart features? Yes and no. Yes - YASD uses LEDs to display randomly generated numbers in a dice style. No - YASD is not in itself a finished product. It should rather show which …

Dust Collector Full Detector

“If you have a dust collector you know what a pain it is if the shavings backup into the filter. Some of the commercial detectors available are expensive and they rely on an optical sensor. Who would put anything optical …

Varmint Detector

“Using Eagle, the PCB I designed is a Varmint Detector. Varmint: noun, North American informal - a troublesome wild animal. In my case, crows and chipmunks attacking our garden. They really arent much of a problem, this is just my excuse …

T³: Programming an ATtiny84A from Arduino

“I ‘m currently working on a project that requires a cheap, low-power microcontroller that ‘s programmable through Arduino and has a few more pins than the ATtiny85. That ‘s where I found the ATtiny84A. It has many of the same …

Keychainino: a programmable, playful Key Ring

“Based on Arduino, it performs electronic light games by piloting a LED matrix thanks to a special multiplexing mode. In the fast paced world we live, moments when we can do whatever we want are rare and we have to …

TinyANN, Artificial Neural Network meets ATTINY

“Welcome to my first instructable. It is a long time I follow this excellent site. I learn a lot from this community and I wish to return back the favor by publishing my own contribution. I do apologize for the …

Bits of Time

“The classic concept of an hourglass taken into the modern world of electronics. Like the original antetype the electronic hourglass is started by turning it upside down. A nifty simulation of the grains of sand visualises the lapse of time …
