Coding for AVR I: Writing and Building on Windows
As you might recall from the last post, we can flash hex files on our AVR. But what are hex files? Hex files are “machine language” instructions for your AVR’s. With this, your chip knows how to respond to inputs … Continue reading
USBTinyISP and ATTiny2313
Hello once again! I recently acquired a USBTinyISP.
Tutorial: Using an Arduino to program AVR’s III – Use It
Alright! So now we have our circuit ready for testing! The first step is to check which port we’re using to “talk” with our Arduino. It shouldn’t be difficult, since we already uploaded a sketch to it. Just open the … Continue reading
Tutorial: Using an Arduino to program AVR’s II – Connections
For this step of our tutorial, we’ll be making the connections from our Arduino to our µcontroller. For this, we will be using a circuit made for flashing the AVRs used in arduinos. Luckily, Atmel makes it very easy to … Continue reading
Tutorial: Using an Arduino to program AVR’s I – Intro
Hello all! My first electronic post will be regarding one of the most useful capabilities of Arduinos. Arduinos are cheap toolkits (or “prototyping platforms” as they call it in their official website). With this tutorial we’ll be solving the first … Continue reading
