Re: [avr-chat] ATTiny167 on avrdude

[Thomas Holland]

Hi Marc,

AVaRICE (v2.8) seems to support the ATtiny167, so you should be able to 
debug it from Eclipse. Take a look at the AVR Eclipse Plugin debugging 
tutorial ( http://avr-eclipse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Debugging ) 
on how to set everything up. With the right setup the debugger will 
transfer your application to your ATtiny167 Flash mem. It won't burn 
fuses and lockbits and it probably won't program the EEPROM, but maybe 
you can live without this.

AVaRICE could also be used to program this MCU (incl. fuses etc.), but 
this is not supported by the plugin (yet -- I am working on it  :-). In 
the meantime you could set up avarice as an 'External Tool' in Eclipse 
to use it as a programmer.

brgds,

Thomas
