Burning Bootloader on ATTiny 45 with Arduino Micro

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

Hello,

Im new here and sorry for my Bad english i try to make the best.

My Problem is i have buy an ATTiny 45 and i want to Programm him so i use the Arduino IDE 1.6.7

  1. Set the Arduino to ISP and load up the Sektch
  2. Choose the ATTiny Board with 1 mhz internel clock
  3. Choose my Arduino Micro as port
  4. Use "Arduino as ISP"
  5. Burn Bootloader

so the problem comes if i try to Burn a Bootloader.

This is the Error Message:

Arduino: 1.6.7 (Windows 10), Board: "ATtiny x5 series, ATtiny45, 1 mhz (internal)

Please help me i try that around 1 Week i get Crazy :frowning:

Hi

I had the same problem until... I uploaded first onto the Arduino Uno the code that he can act as a programmer for ATtinys, meaning:

  1. (forget the Attiny at the moment)
  2. Board = your Adruino
  3. programmer: Arduino ISP (like if you would like to upload a sketch onto your Arduino)
  4. select from Menu -> Examples ->11.Arduino ISP -> Arduino ISP
  5. in the new window, uppload it to your Arduino board.
    !!! NOW is your arduino ready (if no error was coming) to act as a programmer

now you can change the board settings to your Attiny or what ever and change the programmer to ARDUINO as ISP

:wink:
please tell me if this solved your problem...

I'm getting a similar problem.

I'm using a Arduino mega ISP 1.6.7. In the hardware folder I installed the attiny-ide-1.6.x.zip.
wiring is checked triple.
when starting burning the bootloader I receive the message: avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature. Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check.

What does that mean, where do I have to use -F

Thanks a lot for any support.
