David Johnson-Davies shared another nice tiny project. This time is a two digit thermometer based on ATtiny84 and DS12B20 1-Wire temperature sensor. It uses a DS12B20 1-Wire temperature sensor, and an ATtiny84 to drive the display and read the sensor. It's just over 25mm square; about...

Design your next IoT solution using the Synergy S5D3 MCU The S5D3 adds a new tier to the S5 MCU group for applications that require a high-performance Cortex M4F core at a very attractive price point, that does not require on-chip graphic acceleration or Ethernet connectivity. The S5D3...

This project describes a thermocouple thermometer, capable of measuring temperatures up to +1350°C, using just an ATtiny85 and an OLED display. by David Johnson-Davies @ technoblogy.com It uses the ATtiny85's analogue-to-digital converter with a x20 gain option to measure the...

Getting Started with a PIC16, Specifically, a PIC16f18326, by Mattia Maldini @ medium.com: Today I’m going to make a quick tutorial on how to program a bare PIC16, specifically the PIC16f18326. No demo boards and no USB cable, just the MCU, a breadboard and a dedicated...

Renesas Synergy™ TB-S5D3 Target Board Kit helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of the S5D3 Microcontrollers. The S5D3 Target Board Kit offers initial firmware development and evaluation of the Synergy Software Package (SSP) on the Synergy™ S5D3...

Ever since the first microcontroller was released in 1980 by Intel - the Harvard Architecture 8051 mcu - microcontrollers have revolutionized the electronics industry and has spurred an array of low-cost microcontrollers like PIC, AVR, ARM, and others. The AVR has been the one that...

This project describes how to get 12 analogue PWM outputs from an ATtiny85, so you can drive 12 LEDs with individual control over each LED's brightness. David Johnson-Davies writes: Each LED can be set to a brightness between 0 (off) and 63 (fully on). The demonstration program shows a...

The STM32G0 is ST's newest series of mainstream microcontrollers (MCU) for cost-oriented consumer and industrial applications. [via] This new generation offers an Arm® Cortex®-M0+ core at 64 MHz as well as a Securable Memory Area, more RAM and Flash, numerous I/Os, and more...
