PIC10F200 based dice

PIC10F200 based dice

This page describes a PIC10F200-based electronic dice. The reason I made this was that I got a small corner left over when ordering a panel with a couple of other PCBs and thought I would rather use the corner for something fun than leave it unused, so I made a dice. The PCB is quite
