The idea was that while my main goal is the creation of a big fancy controller with multiple channels that is just over-engineered cause i want to. I also wanted to create a tiny "Minimum Viable Controller". One that is just for controlling one single channel and do so without much of a fuss. Basically the controller i SHOULD create.

So the USB Powered "MVC" was born. Created with a small, cheap boost-converter that is easy to hand-solder, a cheap ATTiny controller that is easy to program (all you need is a generic USB->UART bridge, A schottky diode and maybe a resistor) and equipped with a simple "Power-Only" USB-C connector.

I want people to be able to make a bunch of these by hand for less than 20 USD/Euros max.
