Sometimes you don't need a large microcontroller to get your work done. In this installment, TK teaches us how to use the ATtiny combined with Arduino to use the PWM function found on this chip.

An Arduino is a popular open-source single-board microcontroller. Learn how to program one and let the possibilities take shape.

He likes to build bare bones Arduino clones rather than sacrifice full dev boards, and instead of programming them via traditional means, he is using his computer’s sound card.

Programming means understanding how code interacts with actual computer hardware. If you want to get a visceral (and fun) understanding of programming, start with an Arduino.

Nicer models may have different vibration patterns, but if you really want to experiment—and try out your programming chops—you can create your own vibration patterns with an Arduino.

Arduino announced today a new controller, the Esplora, which includes more prebuilt features and could be a step for Arduino toward a wider segment of the microcontroller market.
