I don’t think MOSFETs really need a gate protection resistor, they should work fine without. If you are using it with something like a simple pushbutton though then that’s when you need a pulldown resistor, because the button will only connect it to vcc when pressed but when released it will just break the connection it won’t ground the gate. Then after that try toggling it with a gpio pin on a microcontroller, they can source or sink current and as long as the charge on the gate can go to ground when it’s supposed to be off it should work. For that test don’t use any pulldown resistor. Make a basic circuit on a breadboard with an led and resistor, a MOSFET and just use a wire connected to the gate to manually connect it to 5 V and ground. If your signal signal or gpio can drive it to ground too then you should need a pulldown resistor. They do work with a pulldown resistor if your signal only drives high. You shouldn’t have damaged it, check the datasheet and look at the reference design but it should work like many other examples for n channel MOSFETs. Posted in Microcontrollers Tagged arduino, attiny, attiny85, communications, dev board, i2c, microcontroller, platform Post navigation If you’re looking for some examples for what to do with I2C, take a look at this thermometer that communicates with I2C or this project which uses multiple sensors daisy-chained together.
Attiny88 wire library software#
To that end, also includes code for an example project that simplifies the setup of one of these devices on the software end as well. Using I2C might not be the most novel of innovations, but making it easy to use is certainly a valuable tool to add to the toolbox when limited on GPIO or by other physical constraints. also standardizes the build with a custom development board for the ATtiny that can also double as a shield for the Arduino, allowing him to easily expand and modify his projects without too much extra soldering. It also greatly simplifies wiring for projects that may be distributed across a distance. Communicating with the smaller device allows the Arduino to focus on more processor-intensive tasks while giving the simpler tasks to the ATtiny. This project uses an Arduino as the controller and an arbitrary number of smaller ATtiny85 microcontrollers as targets. All that is needed is to connect the I2C pins of the microcontrollers and provide each with power. I2C has been around since the early 80s as a way for microcontrollers to communicate with each other using a minimum of hardware. This project from shows us one of those options by using the ATtiny85 to offload some of an Arduino’s tasks using I2C. If you’re looking to extend the platform’s reach in one of your own projects, though, there are a couple of options available. One of those hard limits, even for the Arduino MEGA, is a finite number of pins that the microcontroller can use to interface with the real world. Added compile guards.The Arduino is a powerful platform for interfacing with the real world, but it isn’t without limits. TinySerialOut is a bit like the SoftwareSerial libray, but taylored for ATtinys and simpler and more lightweight.Basic functions are: writeBinary(), writeInt() etc.writeString()Serial.print(), Serial.println()Default TX pin is PB2 on an ATtiny85, PD6 on ATtiny88 and PA1 on an ATtiny167.Contains the OpenWindowAlarm example.New: Renamed ATtinySerialOut.cpp to ATtinySerialOut.hpp = TX pin can be defined in main program.
