Programming Attiny85 or atmegas with python; Can you?

Post by zedin »

Does anyone know if you can program any of the amtel chips with python? I am just more used to using python then C. My experience however with the atmel chips is mainly with arduino bootloaders.

I think the closest you'll get might be Micro Python, which requires a significantly beefier microcontroller than an ATtiny or ATmega.

Maybe there's some variant of Python that generates C code that you could then compile for AVR, but aside from that I expect you'll need to work with at least mid-range Cortex-M ARM chips if you really want to stick with Python.
