Step 8: Programming
There are plenty of tutorials out there that can explain the process much better than can be done here (links
below). As I mentioned in my blog, I've been using an Arduino as a full blown AVR programmer for as long as I
can remember (6 years). The benefit to this is that it costs absolutely nothing when using the free tools such
as the AVRGCC compiler and the avrdude programmer. The code for this project can be downloaded from github, look
for the link in the Resources section of this project. It contains all source files including the makefile
needed to compile and program to the chip.
When using an Arduino as an ISP with avrdude, make sure to set the baud rate and programmer flags in the avrdude
command line.
-c avrisp -b 19200
