| Aug 8, 2017 at 3:35 | comment | added | per1234 | It's also not very common to use a bootloader on the ATtiny85 due to the limited flash memory. Usually you will upload sketches to the ATtiny85 using an ISP programmer. For that usage the FT232 is even more inconvenient because it's so slow and you will typically upload more often than you would burn a bootloader. | |
| Aug 8, 2017 at 3:33 | comment | added | per1234 | This is certainly possible but it's very inconvenient and not commonly done. It's much better to buy a cheap 6 pin USBasp clone off eBay or use another Arduino board as an "Arduino as ISP" programmer. It's possible because the FT232 has a bit bang mode but it's very slow. You can find instructions here: learn.adafruit.com/ftdi-friend/…, you just need to adapt the instructions to the ATtiny85 (SPI connections and board selection). I've never done this so I'm not going to write an answer but if you are successful please answer your own question. | |
