Welcome to Workshop 88’s

Tiny85 Class

Please download Tiny core libs from:http://code.google.com/p/arduino-tiny/(for Arduino 1.0, not 1.5!)Unzip and stash the ‘tiny’ folder for later.

ver 1.1 2/1/14

Objective of class

You walk out with a Tiny85 with code that you wrote and that you burned into the chip.

What we’ll cover• Why use a Tiny85 (or friends)? Why not?• How Arduino IDE works with Tinys• Putting new core libs on your IDE• Put a Tiny blinkie on your breadboard• Write your own blinkie• Porting code to Tiny85• Mapping Tiny85 pins to Arduino pins• How to burn code to a Tiny: programming, programmers, programs…• Burn your blinkie!• Fuses and avrdude• Using RESET as a 6th I/O pin• Commercial Tiny85s• Other Tinys: 84, 4313

Atmel 8 bit AVR familes

• Mega family– AtMega328P (Arduino!)– AtMega2560 (Mega)– more

• Tiny family– AtTiny25/45/85– AtTiny24/44/84– AtTiny2313/4313– more

AVR stands for Alf (Egil Bogen) and Vegard (Wollan)'s RISC processor

(There’s also an Xmega family, as well as a 32 bit family.)

What’s inside Mega328P

• 32K program flash• 2K RAM• 1K EEPROM• Two 8-bit counters• One 16-bit counter• Six PWM channels• Serial USART• I2C/TWI interface• 8 channel A/D converter• 23 I/O lines• SPI interface • Analog comparator• Watchdog timer

Get your Tiny on!

• Refer to pinout and connect +5V and ground• The Tiny is preprogrammed with a blink

sketch on pin 5• Put an LED on pin 5 and verify that it works!

Installing Tiny core libs• Unzip if needed• Copy “tiny” directory to the “hardware” directory

either:• In main Arduino installation

Win: Program Files/arduino-1.0.5/hardwarelinux: /usr/share/arduino/hardware

• In your Arduino directory (make dir “hardware” if needed)Win: My Documents/Arduino/hardwarelinux: $HOME/sketchbook/hardware

boards.txt

• Contains definitions for all available boards• In top “tiny” directory, copy “Prospective

Boards.txt” to “boards.txt”• I suggest cleaning up your new “boards.txt”,

leaving only stanzas for– ATtiny85 @ 8 MHz– ATtiny85 @ 1 MHz

Write your blinkie!

• Recognizable pattern• 1-3 LEDs (5 max)• Use variables or #defines for pins

Porting

Tiny has:• Digital pins 0-5• Analog pins A0-A3• Change your pin numbers to ones Tiny has• Find the mapping in the Tiny core libs athardware/tiny/cores/tiny/pins_arduino.c

• Figure out which physical pins you’re using!

Connecting Arduino as ISP to your Tiny85

You need 6 wires:• Power and ground• SPI lines MISO, MOSI, SCK• Reset

Line names are marked on the mini-shield

Using Arduino as ISP• Plug in your Arduino• Select the board type of your Arduino• Load ArduinoISP from Examples• Upload to your Arduino• Plug in mini-shield (must be AFTER loading

ArduinoISP!)• Select Tiny85 board• Select Arduino as ISP as Programmer• Load your code• Click Upload!

avrdude: path

• Windows: try \Program Files\arduino1.0.x\hardware\tools\avr\bin

• Linux: try<arduino-root>/hardware/tools(mine was /usr/share/arduino/hardware/tools)

avrdude: command line

$ avrdude– P /dev/ttyUSB0 (/dev/ttyACM0)– P COM4 (or whatever)– b 19200– p t85– c <path to avrdude.conf>– t

avrdude: stop complaining!part id = "t85"; desc = "ATtiny85"; has_debugwire = yes; flash_instr = 0xB4, 0x02, 0x12; eeprom_instr = 0xBB, 0xFF, 0xBB, 0xEE, 0xBB, 0xCC, 0xB2, 0x0D, 0xBC, 0x02, 0xB4, 0x02, 0xBA, 0x0D, 0xBB, 0xBC, 0x99, 0xE1, 0xBB, 0xAC;

## next 2 are fakes so avrdude won't complain pagel = 1; bs2 = 1;

## no STK500 devcode in XML file, use the ATtiny45 one stk500_devcode = 0x14;

Fuses

• (Not what it sounds like)• Nonvolatile configuration bits• There are 3:

– FUSE LOW BYTE– FUSE HIGH BYTE– FUSE EXTENDED BYTE

• Logic values confusing:1 (not programmed) = FALSE

FUSE LOW BYTE

FUSE HIGH BYTE

FUSE EXTENDED BYTE
