Celebrating little victories means a nice cup of tea as I managed to transfer an Arduino programme into an AVR ATtiny85 microcontroller. Like the people in and surrounding Raspberry Pi, clever souls ...

Change the pin numbers from 13 to 0. Select “ATtiny45 (w/ Arduino as ISP)” or “ATtiny85 (w/ Arduino as ISP)” from the Tools > Board menu (leave the serial port set to that of your Arduino board).

The tutorial is fairly straightforward, and even demonstrates how the Arduino can be used as an ISP for the ATtiny, removing the need to purchase a standalone programmer.

Some of the latest Microchip AVRs require a UPDI programmer. This guide will show you how to build your own Arduino based programmer using jtag2updi.

ATtiny 85 Programmer Parts list can be found in the Instructables link below Make your own ATtiny 85 programmer using an Arduino Nano and a custom made PCB! I've been building a few projects of late ...

Following on from getting an Arduino programme to run on an 8pin ATtiny (ATtiny85), I need to invoke the in-built brown-out reset circuit – because my application involves running from an ...

When creating projects with an ATtiny DIP8, it is often necessary to program the microcontroller several times, especially if adjustments to the code are necessary. This involves removing the ATtiny ...

[Kirill] wrote in to share his Arduino-based PIC programmer. It is capable of writing to the 18F family of chips, including 18F2XXX and 18F4XXX. We think that’s pretty exciting because this l… ...
