Description
Miniature, round module with AVR Attiny85 microcontroller has an 8 KB Flash memory, 2 digital pins, analog input and 2 channels of PWM. On board is miniUSB connector, through which the system can be programmed via the Arduino IDE using thecable. After onlya few minor changes, the plate behaves like a standardArduino.

The collaboration with Arduino
The device can be programmed via the Arduino environment, however, due to the small size of the board, there are some differences:
- Board does not have a serial port so the serial monitor embedded in environment Arduino, will not work.
- Computers are equipped with USB 3.0 ports can have a problem with the recognition of the bootloader, the solution to this situation is to use an external USB 2.0 hub.
