Turning an Arduino of virtually any sort into a simple AVR 6-pin ISP programmer is old hat. But when Atmel came out with a series of really tiny AVR chips, the ATtiny10 and friends with only six pins ...

When it comes to learning about microcontrollers, everyone has to start somewhere. [Lady Ada] recently posted a tutorial on burning the Arduino bootloader to standalone chips for those just getting ...

This project creates a complete standalone ISP programmer for Arduino Nano devices using another Arduino Nano as the programmer. It's designed to program the Optiboot bootloader onto ATmega328P ...

Since you lacked the USB interface in your own Arduino board, it becomes necessary to use a homemade/ready-made USB to Serial Converter Module as an efficient and economical solution. Inexpensive and ...

Here's a completely rewritten "Arduino as ISP" sketch that can program the ATtiny85, in situ, on the Digispark board via its 6- and 3- pin connectors. It uses an Arduino Uno R3 as the programmer, and ...
