   - The Digispark is powered by an [[http://www.atmel.com/devices/attiny85.aspx|Atmel Attiny85 MCU]] - this has many differences from an Arduino's ATmega328 and some libraries may not work correctly on it.
-  - The Digispark only has about 6k of flash memory for storing your code.
+  - The Digispark only has about 6 KB of flash memory for storing your code.
   - Pin 3 and Pin 4 (P3 and P4) are used for USB communication and programming, while you can use them in your circuit if you are not using USB communication, you may have to unplug your circuit during programming if the circuit would impede the pin states or dramatically affect the voltage levels on these pins.
-  - Pin 3 (P3) has a 1.5k pull-up attached to it which is required for when P3 and P4 are used for USB communication (including programming). Your design may need to take into account that you'd have to overpower this to pull this pin low.
+  - Pin 3 (P3) has a 1.5 kΩ pull-up resistor attached to it which is required for when P3 and P4 are used for USB communication (including programming). Your design may need to take into account that you'd have to overpower this to pull this pin low.
   - The Digispark does not have a hardware serial port nor a hardware serial to USB converter. An example library (DigiUSB) is provided, as well as some example code and a serial monitor like program, but communication with the computer will not always be plug and play, especially when other libraries are involved.

+    digitalWrite(0,LOW); //Turn the pin LOW (GND)
-	delay(1000);
+    delay(1000);
 }

 ===== Digital Read: =====
-**NOTE:** The internal pull-up (turned on by calling digitalWrite(0) after setting the pin to output, where 0 is the pin number) are much weaker (about 25k ohm) on an attiny then on an Arduino so the onboard LED interferes with them. If you need them you can use a different port, change your circuit to not need the internal pull-up, or cut the LED trace. For Model A this would apply to P1 for Model B this would apply to P0.([[digispark:tutorials:modelbi2c|Model Identification]])
