Modifying Boards.txt file

Post by rob drizzle »

Can changing the boards.txt take the place of changing configurations through AVRDUDE? Meaning if I add this to the board.txt file:

lopower.name=Arduino Ultru Low-Power (<2.4V, 8 MHz) w/ ATmega328

lopower.upload.protocol=stk500
lopower.upload.maximum_size=30720
lopower.upload.speed=57600

lopower.bootloader.low_fuses=0xFF
lopower.bootloader.high_fuses=0xDA
lopower.bootloader.extended_fuses=0x06
lopower.bootloader.path=atmega
lopower.bootloader.file=ATmegaBOOT_168_atmega328_pro_8MHz.hex
lopower.bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
lopower.bootloader.lock_bits=0x0F

lopower.build.mcu=atmega328p
lopower.build.f_cpu=8000000L
lopower.build.core=arduino

would I still have to use the ISP and AVRDUDE? FYI, I'm still buying a USBtinyISP either way... lol.

Thanks.
