While a Raspberry Pi is a full-fledged computer that can do more complex things than an Arduino microcontroller, it's not the best choice for every project.

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.

In a previous article, we looked at connecting various kinds of Arduino hardware to your Mac. Here's how to get started programming on them to create your own projects.

PWM pins are generally used in controlling output devices in Arduino projects. To send a PWM value to a PWM-capable pin like the Mega's D9, the easiest and most common way is by using the ...

This articles describes how you can use I2C (TWI) communication, Arduino and temperature sensors to measure 3 different temperatures. It can be very helpful when you want to measure the outside, ...

Since the Arduino was launched years ago, many ‘shields’ or add-on boards providing additional functionality have been released. There are hundreds of different shields, from video capt… ...

Arduino-compatible ATtinys with more pins Having had such quick success making a microcontroller project using an 8pin ATtiny85 and programming it with Arduino, I though I would try a more elaborate ...
