The internal oscillator runs at 8MHz but can be doubled in software for 16MHz. ATtiny85 on-board, 8K of flash, 512 bytes of SRAM, 512 bytes of EEPROM. Note: You will need a USB micro B cable to power and to program this board, so grab this cable here if you don't have one. Simply use a USB v2 port or a USB hub in between Some computers' USB v3 ports don't recognize the Trinket's bootloader. Trinket DOES NOT have a Serial port connection for debugging so the serial port monitor will not be able to send/receive data. There are some things you trade-off for such a small and low-cost microcontroller! You can't stack a big shield on it but for many small & simple projects, the Trinket will be your go-to platform.Įven though you can program Trinket using the Arduino IDE, it's not a fully 100% Arduino-compatible. In fact Adafruit even made some simple modifications to the Arduino IDE so that it works like a mini-Arduino board. Adafruit designed a USB bootloader so you can plug it into any computer and reprogram it over a USB port just like an Arduino.
The Attiny85 is a fun processor because despite being so small, it has 8K of flash, and 5 I/O pins, including analog inputs and PWM 'analog' outputs. It's the lowest-cost arduino-IDE programmable board! Perfect for when you don't want to give up your expensive dev-board and you aren't willing to take apart the project you worked so hard to design. This tiny board is designed by Adafruit, they wanted to design a microcontroller board that was small enough to fit into any project, and low cost enough to use without hesitation.
The Trinket may be small, but do not be fooled by its size! It's a tiny microcontroller board, built around the Atmel ATtiny85, a little chip with a lot of power. please take EXTRA PRECAUTION while doing soldering works. Note:This module comes with loose headers, so soldering is required. Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery and Charger.Lead Acid Rechargeable Battery and Charger.
