Arduino Programmer Library

Arduino library to facilitate programming another AVR with arbitrary code.

I offer no support for this code, I use it in various forms in a private project.

HexData upload was never implemented, because it's just too inefficient to store HexData.

The best way is to upload your desired code to a target chip normally using a normal programmer, as you would normally, and then connect said target to your new uploader you are making and use the "ripFlashToPagedBinData" method of the library.

Wiring

Programmer	Target
MOSI	MOSI
MISO	MISO
SCK	SCK
10	RESET
VCC	VCC
GND	GND

Example Of Ripping

#include <ArduinoProgrammer.h>

// Ripping example
//  the connected target already has the code you want uploaded (not locked)
//  we will rip it and print the code to upload in the Serial console 
//  you can then copy and pase it into your programming sketch

ArduinoProgrammer MyProgrammer;

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(57600);

    // Start programming mode
    MyProgrammer.begin();

    // Get details of the chip connected to us (the target)
    ArduinoProgrammer::ChipData TargetChip = MyProgrammer.getStandardChipData();
    
    // Rip code
    uint8_t result = MyProgrammer.ripFlashToPagedBinData(TargetChip, "MyImage");

    // End programming
    MyProgrammer.end();

    // The serial terminal will print out the dump of the target
    //  copy and paste that into the upload
}

void loop() { }

Example Of Uploading

#include <ArduinoProgrammer.h>

ArduinoProgrammer MyProgrammer;


  // "MyImage" - the data you intend to upload to the chip
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // The below image is genertaed by "ripFlashToPagedBinData" in the ripping 
  // example, you copy the output from "ripFlashToPagedBinData and paste here.
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------

        const byte MyImagePage000[128] PROGMEM = {
          0x0c, 0x94, 0x87, 0x00, 0x0c, 0x94, 0xe1, 0x08, 0x0c, 0x94, 0xba, 0x08, 0x0c, 0x94, 0xaf, 0x00, 
          // ...
        };

        // ... and a whole crap load of more data not shown in this example....

        ArduinoProgrammer::PagedBinData MyImage = {
          "ripped",
          0x0000,
          128,
          256,
        MyImagePages };

  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  // --------------------------------------------------------------------------

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(57600);

    // Start programming mode
    MyProgrammer.begin();

    // Get details of the chip connected to us (the target)
    ArduinoProgrammer::ChipData TargetChip = MyProgrammer.getStandardChipData();
    
    // Upload code
    uint8_t result = MyProgrammer.uploadFromProgmem(TargetChip, MyImage);

    if(result == 0)
    {
      // It worked
      Serial.println("Upload Finished");
    }  
    else
    {
      Serial.println("Upload Failed");
    }  
}
      
void loop() { }
