ATTINY85-15MT1

Overview

The ATTINY85-15MT1 is an 8-bit AVR microcontroller manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features a RISC CPU core with 8KB of Flash program memory and 512 bytes of SRAM. The device operates at a maximum clock frequency of 15 MHz and supports a supply voltage range from 1.8V to 5.5V. It includes a 10-bit ADC, programmable watchdog timer, and general-purpose I/O pins. The component is housed in an MLF-8 surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Compact 8-pin surface-mount packaging for space-constrained designs
• Low-power operation suitable for battery-powered applications
• Integrated 10-bit analog-to-digital converter for sensor interfacing

Applications

• Wearable electronics and smart accessories
• Battery-operated sensor nodes
• Miniature embedded control systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix MT1 against official Microchip documentation to confirm the MLF-8 package type and 15 MHz speed grade. Ensure compatibility with required operating temperature ranges and voltage specifications before procurement. Cross-reference datasheet revisions to avoid discrepancies in pinout or electrical characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a small footprint and low power consumption are critical. The 15 MHz speed offers a balance between performance and energy efficiency. Consider the limited I/O count and memory size relative to application complexity. Verify that the MLF-8 package is compatible with the target PCB assembly process.

Part Context
