Breadboard friendly

Use with standard Arduino IDE or AVR Studio

Allows full use of the 8K memory on the chip (no bootloader needed!)

All pins broken out for use.

Reset button on board

Easy to assemble due to through hole construction

Easy to replace chip.

Also easy to take your programmed chip and put it in a final more permanent project. Small and Inexpensive Design.





Now, it is pretty easy to understand the design from image and what's done here is adding a few headers with ATtiny IC. Two headers on the sides are for pin breakout (one is male and other is a female type of header strip connected in parallel), a slightly long female header strip on top is for connecting USB to TTL converter (You can just plug it in, it's pin compatible!) and a 2 pin connector is for power supply. Thus, this is a simple ATtiny board with some headers added for easiness.





A reset button is placed along Pin1, we pull the pin high with a 1k resistor and add a button to ground. An LED is interfaced with PB1 pin of the IC. For USB-TTL header, here are the connections listed:





1. Pin 1 of IC to DTR of USB-TTL converter board

2. Pin 6 of IC to RX of USB-TTL converter board

3. Pin 7 of IC to TX of USB-TTL converter board

4. Pin 8 of IC to Vcc of USB-TTL converter board

5. Pin 4 of IC to GND of USB-TTL converter board

Hello readers! Today I want to showcase my ATtiny board I made with ATtiny 13. It's important in some applications to have a small form factor board and also sometimes you need your board to breadboard friendly. So, I made my own ATtiny based development board which is quite different from other boards in design but satisfies me with its features.It is very well known that ATtiny ICs are great Arduino board alternatives. The board provide variety of features as mentioned below:I will soon upload Eagle files here regarding this board in one of the upcoming post! I actually provided the schematic to a local PCB designing service where they designed the PCB (They actually don't accept pre-designed PCBs!) and made some samples.I hope you liked this post and if you do, please share, subscribe and comment!Thanks for reading!
