Slaveflash-trigger for digital cameras with Attiny24
Posted on: 23 Jun 2012
When flashing with digital compact cameras, the camera usually uses several small flashes before making the actual picture. This is o.k. if the built-in flash is the only flash you have, but if you want to use an external second flash you have a problem: The second flash, also called slave-flash, fires if the master-flash […]
Apple-style LED pulsing using a $1.30 MCU using ATTiny85 microcontroller
Posted on: 23 Jun 2012
The Atmel ATTiny85 chip is an 8-pin MCU that is totally awesome. If you’ve been programming with the bigger boys (the ATMega series), these are a nice adventure – you’re rather limited in the number of output pins, but a creative design gives us a lot of flexibility in a very small package. You’ve seen […]
