Overview
ATtiny261A/461A/861A are low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontrollers based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the devices achieve throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed.
