About the Large-Heart-PCB-LED-Pendant

Large-Heart-PCB-LED-Pendant is an open source AVR/Arduino PCB design by SaltyPaws, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 202.4 × 142.2 mm, with 32 components from 8 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ATTINY25-20SU, from the AVR/Arduino family. By type, the board carries 20 diodes, 6 resistors, 2 battery holders, 1 IC, 1 connector and 1 switch.

From the project

Large heart PCB LED pendant using Charlieplexing and ATtiny to introduce STEAM concepts or conquer the heart of of loved one!

Room for improvement: - With the ATtiny 45 there is more memory space. It could be programmed to cycle trough more/longer patterns. - An eye could be added to the 3d printed snap fit case, for pendant usage. Currently only the 3mm hole is available, which may be a bit small for strings. - One of the M3 holes is covered by the switch. However, the case is snap fit and does not need the M3 hardware to stay in place.
