Connecting the Hardware
The hardware setup is straightforward. There is only one output pin to the LED strip to connect from PB1 (pin 15, defined in pins.h).

Make sure to connect the ground wires from the LEDs and AVR together. Otherwise the digital output from the AVR will be floating, and your lights will flicker randomly. |
Here is what it looks like on my breadboard.
