using Arduino to program the ATtiny167..

Projects Programming
1

hey,

So I have to program 7 ATtiny167 and I would like to use Arduino to do it.

Current solutions is to use an Arduino UNO as a ISP and AVR studio & AVR dude to upload code via the ISP.
AVR Studio does not recognize Arduino ISP as a programmer pod thus AVRdude to program :frowning:

lets face it, this way is a pain and suck...

how can i modify the arduino/arduino SDK to work with a attiny167?

how can i intercept the C code from arduino?

i'm willing to make the modifications/make files so the community can now use the ATtiny167. just need to know what to do and where to start...

also gotta program a ATmega2560 via ISP...

please help... 3 weeks left in the semester...

Hello,

keaton:
Current solutions is to use an Arduino UNO as a ISP and AVR studio & AVR dude to upload code via the ISP.

Does that work? Are you able to program an ATtiny167 using the ArduinoISP sketch?

Koop:
This might be a bit unwanted, but if you need it in three weeks, isn't it better to just suffer through the pain of using the Uno as ISP? Unless you need to program lots of ATtinies?

again i need to program 7 ATtinies...

still working on a hello world program, our team has fallen apart/ dropped..... it is now down to the robotics & electrical engineering student(2 total/ out of the 22) to get us over the finish line. I need basic functionality, the 2 of us need to pass.

we both kinda know C++ from what we took in school.... we both have done extensive work using a arduino uno/demulva/mega

still working on a hello world program

You need to take a step back. Start by getting avrdude to communicate reliably with the target (your ATtiny167). A typical command-line would be...

avrdude -p attiny13 -c stk500v1 -P \\.\COM14 -b 250000 -v -v -v -v

The output will be similar to this...

hello
I am using Attiny167 with arduino as a programmer.
I am using 1Mhz internal clock.
when I set baud rate 9600 , on serial terminal I can not get exact value as i write
for Example : Serial.write(0xAB); but on terminal m getting 6B 2B like this values.
but if i select 9200 on terminal then i get correct values.

Can you please help me with this?
I need 9600 baud rate.

Thanks in advance.

Can you please not cross-post?
