Introduction¶

Program your favorite AVR chips directly from CircuitPython with this handy helper class that will let you make stand-alone programmers right from your REPL. Should work with any/all AVR chips, via SPI programming. Tested with ATmega328, ATtiny85 and ATmega2560

Dependencies¶

This driver depends on:

Adafruit CircuitPython

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Usage Example¶

See examples folder for full examples that progam various bootloaders onto chips.
