Step 2Materials and Tools
For a grid of 5 by 5 fireflies, you need:
The sockets are only neccessary, if your programs are buggy. If you feel confident with your development skills, you can spare them. ;-)
You can surely replace the ATtiny chip with any other microcontroller as PIC, PICAXE or BasicStamp to name a few. Just take the smallest and cheapest you can get. I go with Atmel as I had the programmer already and my first project with a ATtiny13 worked just fine.
Tools
- 25 x 1K Ohm resistor
- 25 x 100 Ohm resistor
- 25 x LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), e.g. M9960
- 25 x LED, 1.7V, 20mA (reg, green, blue, what ever you like)
- 25 x ATtiny13, 1KB flash RAM, 64 Bytes RAM, 64 Bytes EEPROM
- 25 x sockets
- prototyping board
- wire
