Trinket cannot be found

Post by andrewg5 »

April 2023

Unable to detect MCU

Windows 11 , two different machines usb2, usb3
5V Trinket, appears OK, 10 red flashes ( have tried both that i have )
latest drivers installed, DEVmanager shows lib-win32-devices-USBtiny
AVRdude: ATtiny85 selected, allUSBasp variants tried

I cannot get passed this point using "Detect" in AVRdude ------------------------------

>>>: avrdude -c usbasp -P usb -p m8
WARNING: Unable to detect MCU

avrdude.exe: error: could not find USB device with vid=0x16c0 pid=0x5dc vendor='www.fischl.de' product='USBasp'
avrdude.exe: opening programmer "usbasp" on port "usb" failed

avrdude.exe done. Thank you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have used Trinkets before in 2022 on my older machine.
My suspicion is an updated Windows version.

I cannot be alone with this issue.

Prompt assistance would be really welcome.

Regards Andrew

When you plug in the Trinket does the computer see a USB attached?
