Hi!

 

I have an ATTiny85 and I want to start with the blink LED sketch but it does not work. Attached is the wiring:

I followed these instructions: http://forums.4fips.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1080 for wiring, burn both bootloader and LED blink sketch with an Arduino nano as programmer (excepting I'm using 1.8.1 nightly Arduino IDE), and everything looks like going fine:

 

Please note, to have the post under 9000 characters I deleted most of these outputs, you have them full attached:

But it doesn´t blink. Do you have any idea how to solve it? Thanks!

Hi,Why did you connect a

Hi,

Why did you connect a capacitor from ground to reset ?

Try it again but remove it, maybe that helps.

It works now!

 

So I removed the capacitor also the wire from the arduino nano to the reset pin and now it works perfectly.

Thank you very much opidopi! Now you’ll enjoy more developments with this tiny amazing micro :wink:

Connect reset to Vcc if you

Connect reset to Vcc if you don’t need to reset it or connect a 10k resisotr from reset to Vcc and a button from reset to gnd so it pulles the pin down when pressed.

Nice

 

Thank you for the tip. It was a long time without using a micro barebone. Thanks for the reminder opidopi!
