Key Features
- Ultra-compact 6-pin SOT-23 package enabling integration in the smallest possible PCB footprints for space-critical designs
- Wide 1.8 V to 5.5 V operating voltage range supporting both coin-cell and standard regulated power supplies
- 8-bit AVR RISC core with up to 12 MIPS throughput and 1 KB flash for simple embedded control tasks
Applications
The ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 is designed for ultra-compact embedded applications including LED drivers, simple sensor nodes, and power management circuits where minimal pin count and small package size are the primary constraints. Its 1.8 V to 5.5 V supply range makes it compatible with coin-cell batteries and standard 3.3 V or 5 V rails, enabling use in wearables, disposable electronics, and IoT end nodes. The 6-pin SOT-23 footprint allows designers to add programmable 8-bit intelligence to designs that cannot accommodate larger MCU packages.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much flash memory does ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 provide and what kinds of programs fit within it?
The ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 provides 1 KB of on-chip flash memory, sufficient for simple control tasks such as LED dimming routines, button debounce logic, simple state machines, and pulse-width modulation generation. Firmware must be highly optimized, making this device most appropriate for single-purpose low-complexity applications rather than multi-featured embedded systems.
Which power supply configurations are compatible with ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 in portable and wearable designs?
The ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 operates from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, covering coin-cell battery voltage (approximately 3 V), single alkaline cell (1.5 V with boost), and regulated 3.3 V or 5 V rails. This broad range supports portable and wearable devices where supply voltage varies with battery state of charge, without requiring an additional voltage regulator stage.
For a miniaturized LED driver design, how does the 6-pin SOT-23 package of ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 compare to larger MCU packages?
The 6-pin SOT-23 package of ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 occupies roughly 2.9 mm x 1.6 mm of PCB area, far smaller than even the smallest 8-pin SOIC MCU packages. This makes it the preferred choice for miniaturized LED driver circuits in disposable medical devices, smart labels, and compact consumer gadgets where a larger 8-bit MCU with more pins would consume too much board space.
When is ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 a better procurement choice than a fully featured ATmega MCU?
The ATTINY10-TS8R Q1168 is the better procurement choice when the application requires only simple 8-bit control with 6 pins or fewer, a compact SOT-23 footprint, and a low unit cost below that of ATmega devices. For tasks requiring only 1 KB program space and 4 I/O pins at up to 12 MHz, the ATTINY10 avoids paying for unused flash, RAM, and peripherals present in full ATmega parts.
