TVBGONE microcontroller programming

Post by rockman »

I want to build the TVBGONE and I'm ordering the printed board and then all the parts: resistors, capacitors, etc. from Mouser. I've read that the microcontroller I will be getting from Mouser will not be "programmed". How do I program the microcontroller? Does this mean it needs to be hooked up to a PC and a file loaded onto it? Please be clear.....I've looked through the web sites and I can't make sense of it. Thank you.

You'll need to buy a programmer. It's too bad you already ordered. Adafruit sells a GREAT programmer called the USBTinyISP. There's also a serial and parallel version too.
