ATTINY45 in ATtiny Family

The ATTINY45 is a high-performance, low-power 8-bit RISC microcontroller from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) based on the AVR architecture. It features 4KB of in-system programmable flash memory, 256B of EEPROM, and 256B of SRAM. Designed for cost-sensitive and space-constrained applications, this sub-family provides a versatile peripheral set including a 10-bit ADC and high-speed PWM within a compact 8-pin footprint, making it a staple for simple control logic and small-scale embedded systems.

Part Number Package Stock
ATTINY45-20SUR (Microchip Technology) SOIC-8 16,292
ATTINY45-20SU (Microchip Technology) SOIC-8 21,861
ATTINY45-20PU (Microchip Technology) DIP-8 5,989

The ATTINY45 sub-family variants are primarily distinguished by their packaging options and temperature ratings. The -20PU variant offers a through-hole PDIP-8 package for prototyping and legacy boards, while the -20SU and -20SUR variants provide small outline SOIC-8 footprints for surface-mount production. Certain models like the 'SUR' suffix are specifically designated for Functional Safety (FuSa) compliance or automotive environments, meeting AEC-Q100 standards and offering broader operating temperature ranges.
