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 ...

This guide is a complete guide to setting up the Digispark ATtiny85 board on macOS with the Arduino Uno as ISP and Arduino IDE. For example, connect Digispark ATtiny85 pin 0 to Arduino Uno pin 11, ...

Step 1: Configuring Arduino Uno as an ISP: Since ATtiny85 is just a microcontroller, it requires an ISP (In-System Programming) to be programmed. So to program the ATtiny85, we need to first configure ...

For programming, like Orlando, it has as ISP jack instead of USB conn. and takes advantage the MIT High-low tech group’s hack for Arduino 1.0 (which the Digispark may use as well for inputting ...

The ATtiny85 microcontroller allows us to generate an analog output using PWM. The ATtiny85 microcontroller has two timers that can be used to generate PWM signals. The first is Timer 0, an 8-bit ...

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.

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).

The Digispark board is designed to be a cost-effective and compact alternative to the traditional Arduino boards. It is equipped with an ATtiny85 microcontroller, which, despite its small size ...
