GuGaplexed Valentine LED Heart using ATTiny13V Microcontroller

GuGaplexing is a new LED display multiplexing technique. Compared to Charlieplexing, GuGaplexing allows you to control twice as many LEDs, with just a few additional components. GuGaplexed Valentine LED Heart project has 40 LEDs arranged in an ‘Arrow Piercing a Heart” arrangement using only 5 pins of a microcontroller. The project uses an AVR ATTiny13V

Slaveflash with Attiny24 ver. 2.0

You might have noticed the Slaveflash I built with an Attiny 24, the instructable can be found here: Slaveflash-trigger-for-digital-with-Attiny24   After building the first prototype I collected all my old flashes I got over the years and had four more slaveflash-triggers to built. I already figured out an PCB-Layout for the SOIC-version of the attiny 24.

How to Read Binary/Hex Thumbwheel Switch with an AVR Microcontroller

This instructable will show you how to read the number on a binary pushwheel or thumbwheel switch using LED’s or an AVR microcontroller (I’m using an ATmega328p but this can be adapted for any AVR or probably another microcontroller of your choice). Multiple thumbwheel switches can be strung together to make an electronic combination lock,

Programmable LED using Atmel ATtiny13v Microcontroller

Inspired by various LED Throwies, blinking LEDs and similar instructables I wanted to do my version of an LED controlled by a microcontroller. The idea is to make the LED blinking sequence reprogrammable. This reprogramming can be done with light and shadow, e.g. you could use your flashlight. This is my first instructable, any comments

Jar of Fireflies using AVR ATTiny45 Microcontroller

This project uses green surface-mount LED’s along with an AVR ATTiny45 microcontroller to simulate the behavior of fireflies in a jar. (note: the firefly behavior in this video has been greatly sped up in order to be easier to represent in a short film. The default behavior has significantly more variance in its brightness and
