This is the final part of three in attempting to explain how to make the ATtiny13 flash a LED. Part 1: Setup, Hardware and A Basic Solution Part 2: Using timer interrupts Part 3: Low power mode In previous posts we’ve looked at creating a simple LED flasher circuit for the ATtiny, a first-pass program [...]
This is the second part of three in attempting to explain how to make the ATtiny13 flash a LED. Part 1: Setup, Hardware and A Basic Solution Part 2: Using timer interrupts Part 3: Low power mode Post-Pre-script: If you find this post useful, happen to try out the code, or have any other views [...]
This is the first part of three in attempting to explain how to make the ATtiny13 flash a LED. Part 1: Setup, Hardware and A Basic Solution Part 2: Using Timer Interrupts Part 3: Low Power Mode If you’re used to the user-friendliness of Arduino, getting started with bare bones AVRs can be hard work. [...]
I was messing around with some Christmas toys and threw together a Conway’s Game Of Life implementation together on my Arduino. I just love how quick it is to get things up and running on this platform. It took me longer to solder a platform for the LED matrix to raise it up off the [...]
I wanted to learn how to get the handful of non-Arduino AVR chips I have working. I wanted to learn the basics of the C API, the development toolchain, and get a sense for what can be done with the little ATtiny microprocessors. Starting with the most limited, teeny tiny little chip (the 1k ATtiny13), [...]
