This is a small adapter board to allow Atmel’s ATtiny24/44/84 µController chip to be used on the Atmel STK500 development platform.
Description
I recently wanted to use one of Atmel’s smaller chips on a project and selected the ATtiny84 – it’s one of a family of chips with varying Continue reading

Description
Having recently started playing with µControllers, I wanted to experiment with converting a digital signal into an analog voltage. The easiest way to accomplish this is by using an R-2R resistor ladder.

Tom Madracki, of Yorba Linda Miata, has an interesting garage door opener modification on his website. His opener modification activates the garage door opener whenever the high-beam headlights are turned on.
This is a write-up that I did for a local Miata club website back around ’99 or 2000. It includs the schematics but only a few photos, I didn’t take nearly as many back then as I’ve done for more recent projects.
