Commands
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
- this opens the menu to the buspirate, assuming that you used the right usb port. You should see a "HiZ>" prompt after typing enter.
- also try "screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200 8N1" if the first command doesn't work
In the BusPirate Menu:
M2
- 'm' brings up the menu
- '2' selects 1-WIRE
W
- enables the onboard power supplies
Verify via multimeter that the brown lead is ground, and the orange lead is 5v.
#
- resets the buspirate
CTR-a, k, y
- kills screen application
Now to wire up the chip
For an Atmel Attiny13: * White -> reset (pin 1) * Brown -> ground (pin 4) * Grey -> MOSI (pin 5) * Black -> MISO (pin 6) * Purple -> clock (pin 7) * Orange -> Vcc (pin 8)
avrdude -pt13 -c buspirate -P /dev/ttyUSB0 * use -pt85 for an attiny85 * should return "avrdude: safemode: Fuses OK (H:FF, E:FF, L:6A)"
echo "#" > /dev/ttyUSB0; avrdude -pt13 -c buspirate -P /dev/ttyUSB0 -U flash:w:blob.hex:i * this writes blob.hex to the Attiny13 * make sure you aren't logged into the buspirate menu when you do this. * sometimes unplugging and plugging the buspirate in necessary to reset it.
