Six pin Microcontrollers from Atmel-AVR ATtiny10

The latest AVR ATtiny10 is highly suitable for large volume market applications.

AVR ATtiny10 has 1kilobytes of programmable flash memory, 32 bytes of internal Static Ram,  8-bit Analog to Digital converter, a 16-bit timer with Pulse Width Modulation, 12 MIPS of processing throughput and an analog comparator.Using the AVR CPU, this device is supposed to give 6 times performance of any other similar size & cost device available in the market.

Atmel says “If your application needs higher processing power with lower current consumption, AVR ATtiny10 is the right soultion”

All tinyAVR microcontrollers use the standard AVR microcontroller development tools. The AVR Studio AVR integrated development environment is available free of charge on Atmel’s website. Samples of this microC is now available at a very small price of $0.35 for 10k units.

How AVR ATtiny10 ensures low power consumption?

This device with high processing efficiency reduces the time in active mode and more time will be spent in power saving sleep modes. In addition to this, Atmels picopower technology is used in this device which ensures low power consumption.

Key Parameters:

Flash (Kbytes)  – 1
SRAM (Bytes) -  32
Max I/O Pins  – 4
F.max (MHz)  – 12
Vcc (V)             – 1.8-5-5V
Analog Comparator   – Yes

Description.

Here is the circuit diagram of a simple two transistor tone controller circuit. This circuit is based on the famous Baxandal tone control design. The transistor Q1 is wired an emitter follower to provide sufficient current gain and input impedance. The second transistor is used to voltage amplify the signal in. The network of resistance and capacitors connected between emitter of Q1 and base of Q2 is used to control the tone. Variation in the value of these components varies the audio response of the system.This circuit can provide a maximum attenuation and boost of 10decibel on 10KHz and 60Hz frequency ranges.

Circuit diagram with Parts list.

Notes.

• The circuit can be powered from 12V DC.
• The input and output must be connected with respect the ground.
• POT R5 can be used to control bass.
• POT R8 can be used to control treble.
• All electrolytic capacitors must be rated at least 12V.

Every electronic maniac needs a Multimeter, which’s his basic tool. From the plenty of multimeters available in the market, how to choose the BEST one? I thought of reccomending the one I use for my readers. I have been using Equus 3320 Auto-Ranging Digital Multimeter for a year or so and I must say I am more than satisfied with this Auto Ranging multimeter.
