Hardware User Guide Hardware User Guide Connectors 4.1.1 ATtiny104 Xplained Nano Pinout The ATtiny104 Xplained Nano has a direct fan-out of the I/O pins of the device and all I/O’s are accessible at the edge connectors. Table 4-1. Edge Connector Edge ATtiny104 Pin...
Power disconnect Peripherals 4.3.1 There is one yellow LED available on the ATtiny104 Xplained Nano board that can be turned ON and OFF. The LED can be activated by driving the connected I/O line to GND. Table 4-2. LED Connection ATtiny104 Pin...
Embedded Debugger Implementation Embedded Debugger Implementation ATtiny104 Xplained Nano contains a Mini Embedded Debugger (mEDBG) that can be used to program the ATtiny104 using Tiny Program Interface (TPI). The mEDBG also includes a Virtual Com port interface over UART. Atmel Studio can be used as a front end for the Mini Embedded Debugger.
= product identifier r = revision s = serial number The product identifier for ATtiny104 Xplained Nano is A09-2678. Fuse Masking The ATtiny104 RSTDISBL(External Reset disable) fuse has been masked out in the mEDBG firmware. This is done to avoid users disabling programming and debugging of the ATtiny104.
