Check out these photos by Travis Goodspeed of an ATTiny45V chip die. It’s bigger sibling, the ATTiny85V, is used in the TV-B-Gone kit, and would look very similar, except for more memory. (I believe) the homogenous rectangles left of center in the top picture are the Flash modules.
Travis has been taking die photos for quite some time, and has a rather impressive set on Flickr. See also his “chip logos” set and his “chip artwork” set.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
