Program ATtiny 0-Series Chips with a Miniature UPDI Dongle

Thanks to their tiny size and improved capabilities, the ATtiny-0-Series of microcontrollers have been a delight for designers and DIYers looking for a microcontroller with the ease of use associated with the Arduino boards, but with a way smaller form factor associated with ATtiny...

minUno development Board

The Arduino Uno is unarguably one of the greatest development boards ever made and its impact as one of the boards that rekindled the fire of the electronics maker movement cannot be disputed. It came with enough power for users to build amazing projects, but it also was extremely easy to...

How to Use I2C EEPROM with Arduino

Expand your board's storage with an I2C-enabled EEPROM chip. EEPROM stands for Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory. It allows for values to be written and stored for long periods of time while using very little power. Most microcontrollers even have EEPROM directly in...

Programming Atmega328p Microcontroller with Arduino IDE

Over the past few tutorials, we have mentioned several scenarios where using any of the Arduino board in a project may be an overkill due to the cost, size, and more technical reasons such as high power consumption. In the last tutorial, we discussed an alternative way of using...

Installing the Arduino Bootloader on the Atmega328p Microcontroller

Cost and size, just to mention a few, makes using an Arduino board in certain projects an overkill, often times its always too big, or too expensive for the scope of the project especially when it’s a project that we need to make several units. One good way to retain the simplicity...
