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 ...

Providing a quick start for projects with 8 and 20 pin AVR microcontrollers is the main purpose of building these tiny controller boards. Providing a quick start for projects with 8 and 20 pin AVR ...

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 ...

If you're looking for a fun electronics project to give a small fright to trick-or-treaters you can create a spooky blinking eyes setup where several sets of colored eyes blink randomly by ...

[Mitxela]’s repair of a Roland JV-1080 (a rack-mounted 90s-era synthesizer) sounds simple: replace a broken rotary encoder on the front panel. It turned out to be anything but simple, since the part ...
