Literally, ATtiny85 is a scaled-down version of the Atmega microcontroller on Arduino boards with just a few I/Os (five usable pins) that can listen to or talk to most sensors and transducers.

That all changed when he discovered the Arduino-Tiny project, which aims to bring a limited Arduino IDE to the ATtiny line of microcontrollers. He found the project to be quite useful, ...

When writing code for the ATtiny family of microcontrollers such as a the ATtiny85 or ATtiny10, people usually use one of two methods: they either add support for the chip in the Arduino IDE, or th… ...

Prior to this, I downloaded one of the sets of data to enable the Arduino IDE (v1.8.3 in my case) to work with ATtiny85 by following these instructions on the MIT HighLowTech blog.- which involves ...

Features of the Arduino Learning Kit ATTiny85 and Programmer Board : – Support For the Arduino IDE 1.0+ (OSX/Win/Linux). – Power via USB or External Source – 5v or 7-35v (Automatic Selection).

The ATtiny85 based mini development board is similar to the Arduino, but cheaper and smaller (ofcourse a bit less powerful). With a whole host of shields to extend its functionality and the ability to ...

Following on from getting an Arduino programme to run on an 8pin ATtiny (ATtiny85), I need to invoke the in-built brown-out reset circuit ... It involves setting three bits in non-volatile memory – ...

The Adafruit Gemma measures just 1 inch in size and is powered by an ATtiny85 and programmable with an Arduino IDE over USB, allowing you to create those wearable projects of the future.

In Arduino IDE 1 (specifically v1.6.2 onwards), you will need to visit the Library Manager, via Sketch > Include Library. Here, you can select from listed libraries, ...
