Overview

The ATtiny24/44/84 is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced

RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATtiny24/44/84

achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize

power consumption versus processing speed.
