Microchip Technology Inc., has introduced a new member of the company's 8- and 14-pin PIC16F61X 8-bit PIC microcontroller (MCU) family, targeting cost-effective general-purpose applications. The ...

The audio player was built using an SD memory card and the ATtinyX5 series 8-pin AVR microcontroller. The SD audio player is able to output a wide frequency range audio signal since the ...

Atmel is filling a pin-count gap in its AVR microcontroller range. “We received requests for 14-pin AVR devices,” said AVR marketing director Jukka Eskelinen. “ATtiny24, 44 and 84 devices complement ...

An inductor and 8-pin microcontroller are all that make up this barebones RFID tag. You might have done a double-take when first seeing the image above. After all, there’s nothing hooked up to the ...

Microcontroller port pins can typically be driven either high or low, or else be put into an "input" or high-impedance state. This circuit uses the three states to drive two separate LEDs with one ...
