ATtiny13 Microcontroller Overview
The ATtiny13 is a low-power 8-bit CMOS microcontroller based on the enhanced AVR RISC architecture. With its advanced instruction set and single-clock cycle instruction execution time, the ATtiny13 achieves a data throughput of up to 1 MIPS/MHz, helping to alleviate the trade-off between power consumption and processing speed in a system.
