FunCount Kit Components

This simple design uses the 20 pin ATTiny2313 microcontroller to measure frequencies from 1Hz to over 2MHz. The frequency is displayed on a standard HD44780 16x2 LCD. A bright white text, blue backlit LCD is included with the kit. The device requires a regulated 5V power supply.

The PCB also provides access to the unused microcontroller pins, so that the board can also be used as a general purpose AVR development board with an LCD.

The input voltage needs to have at least a 3V swing to be able to trigger the counter.

A complete kit can be purchased from www.nuxieshop.com, along with pre-programmed AVRs and blank PCBs.
