Confirm Drivers Installed Successfully

Confirm that the drivers are installed successfully based on your hardware.

Refer to the table below for which programmer each kit uses:

Programmer Contained in Kit Programmable Boards
USBTTL 102 Basic Kit Core, Core+, CoreRF
mBattery Itty Bitty City, 202 Advanced Kit, 302 Expert Kit Core, Core+, CoreRF
(CoreUSB)* X01 Series Kits: 101 Basic Kit; 201 Advanced Kit; 301 Expert Kit CoreUSB
  • NOTE: CoreUSB is a core module with an integrated programmer.

USBTTL

  • Connect Microduino-USBTTL to your computer. Verify that there are available Port options under Tools.

Selecting Board Type and Processor

Selecting the Board Type and Processor is required to compile the correct code for the core module.

Configuring the software is done under Tools > Board and Tools > Processor.

Below is the table which lists all the core modules with corresponding Board and Processor. The table also lists kits that contain specific core modules.

Example usage would be for the Core module in Itty Bitty City. Board is Microduino/mCookie-Core (328p) and Processor is Atmega328P@16M,5V.

Name Board Processor Contained in Kit
Core (168pa) Microduino/mCookie-Core (168pa) Atmega168pa@8M,3.3V
Atmega168pa@16M,5V
Core (328p) Microduino/mCookie-Core (328p) Atmega328P@8M,3.3V
Atmega328P@16M,5V Itty Bitty City Kit, X02 Series Kits: 102 Basic Kit; 202 Advanced Kit; 302 Expert Kit
Core+ (644pa) Microduino/mCookie-Core+ (644pa) Atmega644pa@16M,3.3V
Atmega644pa@16M,5V 302 Expert Kit
Core+ (1284pa) Microduino/mCookie-Core+ (1284pa) Atmega1284pa@8M,3.3V
Atmega1284pa@16M,5V
CoreUSB Microduino/mCookie-Core USB (32u4) USB X01 Series Kits: 101 Basic Kit; 201 Advanced Kit; 301 Expert Kit
CoreRF Microduino/mCookie RF (128rfa1)
