# ATtiny programmer board (ArduinoUNO as ISP) #
[](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCrS0gHoqbE)
### ATtiny13/ATtiny13a/ATtiny25/ATtiny45/ATtiny85 ###
I really like the ATtiny, and for programmaer It, so I build a simple board to use ArduinoUNO as ISP in a faster way.
For Original ArduinoUNO there is a little variant because compatible one have another 5v VCC over RESET pin,
Arduino uno have IOREF instead.
(In project you can find fritzing file, the simple examples and schema).
## ATtiny13a variant
I buy ATtiny13a very low cost IC (less than 0.5€), with 4 analog pin and 2 PWM/TIMER PIN.
## How to program an ATtiny:
### Prepare ArduinoUNO to use it as ISP
1. In Arduino IDE select ArduinoUNO board (`Tool --> Board --> ArduinoUNO` - `Strumenti --> Scheda --> ArduinoUNO`);
2. Than open ArduinoISP example file (`File --> Examples/Esempi --> 11.ArduinoISP --> ArduinoISP`);
3. Upload Arduino (`Sketch --> Upload/Carica`);
4. Close IDE.
### Add support for ATtiny:
**ATtiny13/ATtiny13a** ([GitHub ATtiny13 support](https://github.com/MCUdude/MicroCore)):
1. Open the Arduino IDE;
2. Open the `File > Preferences` menu item;
3. Enter the following URL in Additional Boards Manager URLs: [`https://mcudude.github.io/MicroCore/package_MCUdude_MicroCore_index.json`](https://mcudude.github.io/MicroCore/package_MCUdude_MicroCore_index.json) ;
4. Open the `Tools > Board > Boards Manager`... menu item;
5. Wait for the platform indexes to finish downloading;
6. Scroll down until you see the MicroCore entry and click on it;
7. Click Install;
8. After installation is complete close the Boards Manager window.
**ATtiny25/ATtiny45/ATtiny85** ([GitHub other ATtiny support](https://github.com/damellis/attiny/))
1. Open the Arduino IDE;
2. Open the File > Preferences menu item;
3. Enter the following URL in Additional Boards Manager URLs: [`https://raw.githubusercontent.com/damellis/attiny/ide-1.6.x-boards-manager/package_damellis_attiny_index.json`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/damellis/attiny/ide-1.6.x-boards-manager/package_damellis_attiny_index.json) ;
4. Open the Tools > Board > Boards Manager... menu item;
5. Wait for the platform indexes to finish downloading;
6. Scroll down until you see the MicroCore entry and click on it;
7. Click Install;
8. After installation is complete close the Boards Manager window.
### Upload to ATtiny
1. Attach board to ArduinoUNO;
2. Insert ATtinyXX;
3. If the board is v03 than activate test led otherwise using a breadboard and take VCC from upper right pin of attiny and GND to down left pin, than connect 0 pin (down right) to a led;
4. Select board with correct setting and PORT (`Tools --> Board/Strumenti --> Scheda`);
5. Select Arduino as ISP (`Tools --> Programmer --> Arduino as ISP/Strumenti --> Programmatore --> Arduino as ISP`);
`note: Arduino as ISP is different from ArduinoISP`.
6. Upload program (`Sketch --> Upload from programmer` / `Schetch --> Carica tramite un programmatore`).
### Sample sketch
```cpp
#define PIN 0
void setup()
{
pinMode(PIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(PIN, LOW);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(PIN, HIGH);
delay(500);
}
```

The board is double side so I can attach pin and componend up and down the board.
