Most microcontroller implementation these days, use the traditional capacitor + crystal approach to generate their clock, this approach sometimes, however, lead to problems, especially when used in prototyping situations with a breadboard, jumper wires, etc., all of which have an...

At the very heart of any embedded electronics system is a microcontroller. While the ATtiny series of microcontrollers have been around for a while now, they recently started getting noticed on a very high scale as DIYers and professional designers now use them in various projects which...

Battery testers provide an easy way for hardware designers and hobbyists to determine the genuine capacity of βatteries. There are different makes and models being sold across diverse online stores but one which stands out among all that I have used in recent times is the ZKETECH...

Whether it’s to print your name on personal belongings, elevate product value with your own logo or print your favorite photo on any surface, this 2nd generation machine gives an output resolution of 500 DPI. After we saw what could be described as “the very first palm-sized...

ATtiny series of microcontrollers have, in recent times, been on the receiving end of a renewed love from the community. The processing power and new features, packed into the tiny form factor which houses the new chips have been a major contributor to their adoption, however,  one...

Stefan Wagner's EasyEDA profile is definitely the go-to source for all things ATtiny. He's built 10s of projects, some of which we have covered here, that are based on the tiny microcontrollers, and it only makes sense that one of his latest projects, called the TinyHVSP, is a tool to...

Fonts sourcing/creation, usage and management, are some of the major challenges firmware developers face with projects where the display (TFTs, Epaper displays, etc.), is a critical element of the project's performance. From access to clear and good looking fonts to managing the size of...

Not sure there is anyone on the internet who loves the Attiny series of microcontrollers as much as Stefan Wagner. We have explored a number of projects from him, from the USB power tester to the TinyRemote with ATtiny13, all based on a member of the Attiny series of microcontrollers....
