ATtiny85 Programmer
As I will be using ATtiny85s for an upcoming project, I needed a way to program them. Instead of buying an USB programmer, I decided to make my own.
This one is using an Arduino Nano programmed with the “Arduino as ISP” sketch, available in the Arduino IDE. The green, red and blue LED:s connected to it indicates whether the programmer is ready, has received an error, or is currently uploading, respectively.
I also created a test program in AVR C for the ATtiny85, that will blink a yellow LED if the flash was successful.
Perhaps I’ll put up a more thorough guide if I find the time.
