Arduino Satellite

This is based on the superb work by Mohit Bhoite

Setting up the Arduino

Install the arduino example File -> Examples -> ArduinoISP -> ArduinoISP

I'm programming the ATTiny85 (ATTINY85V-10PU-ND) using an Arduino UNO... and that is actually a bit of a pain! There are quite a few online tutorials however most of them seem out of date or broken because of updates to the Arduino IDE / ssl certificates at the moment.

Here my current setup 26 December 2023

In order to install the ATTinyCore board configuration I needed to follow the details in this comment

Thankfully the ATTinyCore configuration does not require you to have a 10 micro-farad capacitor like these instructions

Flashing the chip

Pin out guide for ATTiny85:

Wiring setup:

Arduino ATtiny85
GND GND
3.3v VCC (chip pin 8)
~10 Pin 5 (chip pin 1)
13 Pin 2 (chip pin 7)
12 Pin 1 (chip pin 6)
11 Pin 0 (chip pin 5)

When flashing the chip make sure to flash using the INTERNAL clock source. Otherwise the chip requires an external crystal oscillator and you cannot re-flash the chip without one.

These are the settings I'm using at the moment:

Then it is just about pressing Tools -> Burn Bootloader

Programming the ATTiny85

This one was also really annoying! there is a handy upload button Screen Shot 2023-12-26 at 10 16 22 am but it does not work!

To upload your program you need to navigate to sketch -> Upload using programmer

After that I've still found it hit and miss to successfully upload the program with weird intermittent issues but it works well enough...
