On this page you will find a scrolling LED sign based on the ATtiny2313 AVR microcontroller, which you can build yourself (when finished) Other names for this device can be: Moving message sign, Message crawler, Scrolling message, message display, etc. The idea is to let a text scroll over the LED dot-matrix displays. A dot-matrix […]

At the moment I do not have a kitchen timer. Not because I do not want one, (they’re cheap enough to buy) but because it seems impossible to buy a kitchen timer with a decent user interface. That means I have to build my own, which I just the kind of stuff I like. The

Dimmer: Schematic Source code I made this project for Leo, a brother of mine. We had an old remote control of a video recorder laying around and he wanted some dimmers for all the lights in his house. I didn’t have much experience with programming microcontrollers at that time but I was willing to start

This is an experimental board for ATTiny2313 microcontroller that provides a 10-pin connector for in-circuit serial programming, and other header pins to access I/O pins. The AT2313 microcontroller runs on an external 10Mhz crystal. The board has a push button reset switch for resetting the microcontroller. The onboard regulator provides a +5V DC to the
