Arduino Attiny85 Smart Fan Controller

Supplies

Are you annoyed by the loud fan noise? I did.

I have many tools that has a fan. And some tool's fan always runs at maximum speed.
So I made it more quiet.

Its design is simple. But I want to make it really small.

So I can put in my tools.

**so there are no upload pin to sketch uploading**

There are temperature sensing part and MOSFET switching part.

Attiny85 checks temperature and if temperature is high then it outputs PWM frequency high.

And there is one potentiometer. It can be used as adjuster.

I made it as temperature adjuster.

If I rotate it then Attiny85 thinks it is hotter or cooler than real.

So I can move the fan slower or faster.

But it can adjust PWM or maximum temperature or anything if you edit the sketch.

Temperature sensor is 100K thermistor

I will not explain too much. There are many good manual if you google it.

But I didn't made upload pin on the board. So you should upload before solder it.

void setup(void) {

TCCR0B = TCCR0B & 0b11111000 | 0b001; //changing PWM frequency.

Arduino's PWM frequency is audible. So I change it higher to I cannot hear it.

The temperature unit is Celsius and I programmed it minimum 25 to maximum 35 degree.

You should change it to your needs.
