In the 8bit AVR range that basically means ATmega32U4, ATmega328P, ATmega2560, ATmega168. Specifically the 'Processor' column - *those* are the 'Arduino processors'. HopCode wrote: or is if they were an Arduino. I've got an ideaВ the for a board using these chips that the wearable crowd would eat for breakfast. Let me get this straight, so if I take these steps I can pretty much use these chips as if they were an arduino? ie use adafruit libraries and program in a way I know and love? If so then dude, you're a damn legend, and why the heck is there only one other person to have cottoned on? You're a damn hero in my eyes and your praise deserves to be sung!!ДЄnother question I have (I am a complete noob when comes to electronic circuit design, apart from badly designing a nano clone), if I was designing a circuit for one of these new attiny chips would I only need one exposed pin for UPDIВ programming? Is that what 1-wire means? If so then these chips are just bonkers cool, no blooming ICSP of FTDI headers on a board that take up so much space! I'm just really really grateful, and wanted to say thank you for your commendable work! On the dropController the UART TX and RX LEDs will flash quickly when the new firmware is being uploaded.I just signed up to say thank you El Tangas! I've been interested about these new chips but thought it was a complete mission to program, but seems like you've done everything so you can use these chips in the Arduino environment. The IDE will compile and upload the sketch. Open the Arduino IDE (remember to add the digitalIOPerformance library).

Unpack the archive and put the sketch folder somewhere convenient. If the library is not added to the IDE the sketch will not compile.Дownload the latest sketch from the Downloads page. Note: The dropController sketch requires the digitalIOPerformance library. Simply treat the dropController as an Arduino, connect to your computer, open the Arduino IDE, select the correct COM port, load the sketch, and click the upload button. If you are familiar with Arduino then the dropController firmware can be updated through the Arduino IDE. Using the Arduino Sketch With the Arduino IDE While the new firmware is uploading the red and blue LEDS on the Arduino should flash quickly.ДЄfter the upload is complete the yellow LED on the dropController should blink slowly showing the dropController is on but not connected. If you purchased either the dropController or the dropController kit then the Arduino is an вЂњDuemilanove/Nano (ATmega328) m328p stk500 57600 вЂќ. Since the firmware is inside the same folder as XLoader you should see the HEX file straight away XLoader does not need to be installed and it is run from the folder.ДЄttach the dropController to your computer with the appropriate USB cable.Дouble click the XLoader program to start it.Д¬lick the button with the 3 dots to load the dropController firmware. We will use XLoader to upload the HEX file. Inside the folder is the dropController HEX file and also XLoader and avrdude.

Everything you need to update the dropController firmware is in the download. Unpack it and put the folder somewhere convenient. Using the Pre-compiled HEX File and XLoaderДownload the HEX file from the Downloads page.

This does not require any software to be installed.

If you are not familiar with the Arduino IDE, or you simply do not want to install it, use the HEX file update.

There are two methods to update the firmware on the dropController ДЎ вЂ“ using the pre-compiled HEX file and XLoader.Дў вЂ“ using the dropController sketch with the Arduino IDE.
