		drewzero1 on March 7, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: $1 Microcontrollers (2017) I should've specified that I don't dislike the ATTiny85 or Arduino, far from it. I just needed to find a replacement for a Digispark that I bricked (flashed the wrong bootloader) and wanted to see what other options were out there for a low-spec, low-cost MCU/dev board. I've been using Arduino for years and it's hard to beat the docs and community.

Wasnt meant as a value judgement, just hijacked your post sorry :) In fairness it was already downvoted.

For a better price point check silicon labs 8 bit variant, otherwise you need to give more data about your scenario

edit: That is chip cost. I dont know about devboards
