If you don't want to use your Arduino board you can get one of these Tiny Programmers. It's a lot easier then the Arduino ISP way and works also with the latest Arduino IDE version. See the hookup ...

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.

An Attiny85 contains no direct plugin ports to be programmed , it needs another microcontroller to program it. Since I have an easy access to arduino , Arduino becomes the programmer here This is the ...

Features of the Arduino Learning Kit ATTiny85 and Programmer Board : – Support For the Arduino IDE 1.0+ (OSX/Win/Linux). – Power via USB or External Source – 5v or 7-35v (Automatic Selection).

Because I have an Arduino Micro (smaller, but almost electrically the same as an Arduino Leonardo), which is built around a different AVR, there are some changes to make. Also, I am trying to ...

It works like this: Aduino’s programming language is simple, C-like, and free – as is its development environment. Get an Arduino Uno (some other Arduinos work to). Write the programme – called ...

The creative adventures with ATtiny series microcontroller are awesome if you know how to play them. ATtinys — especially the ATtiny85s — are all around us, and by using one, we can shrink the size of ...

Making an Arduino shield can be simpler than you think. This time I designed one to program Attiny and Atmega ...
