Setting up an electronics lab is the dream of many electronics engineers and hobbyists, but getting it done is usually a very big task to achieve. From knowing the amount of space you'd need, to know the right kind of tools to buy, and then to the right kind of devices with the right...

Arduino development boards are highly popular among makers and beginners in electronics for their ease of use. The Arduino boards are designed in such a way that making connections to peripherals like sensors and displays is extremely easy. All it needs is a little common sense for...

ATtiny Flasher is a handy device that allows you to use your favorite IDEs and debugging tools when developing for the ATtiny microcontroller. Enjoy the classic Arduino development experience while working with bare metal. Whether you’re a design engineer, a hobbyist, or someone...

This Arduino shield transforms your Arduino UNO into an ISP-Programmer for the ATtiny85 microcontroller. The board simplifies the Boot-loader burning on the ATtiny85 chip. It consists of an 8-pin DIP socket to insert the new ATtiny85 chip, C1 decoupling capacitor, and C2 capacitor is...

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...

We've seen several Security-based hardware projects from Koko (@justcallmekoko) in the past, including the Masterkey keylogger which we explored a few days back. Looking through his projects on GitHub today, I stumbled on another security-based project called the Tinyduck. A cheap...

At the heart of any embedded electronics device, either on a DIY or professional product level is a microcontroller. They run the codes/firmware that helps developers obtain inputs from sensors and tie it to actions executed through actuators. While they are usually developed as...

While the ATtiny series of microcontrollers have been around for a long time, their popularity until recently was low. DIY enthusiasts and Professional designers now use them in diverse projects, most of which, in the past, would have featured an Arduino or a bigger MCU like the...
