A simple binary for Arduino Leonardo Upload

This is a very simple binary file to upload firmware .hex into Arduino Leonardo/Micro (ATmega32u4 with CDC bootloader). Tested with Ubuntu 16.04 and Raspbian Stretch.

Features

• Auto reset with 1200 baud

Requirements

AVRDUDE - Linux

AVRDUDE is a utility to download/upload/manipulate the ROM and EEPROM contents of AVR microcontrollers using the in-system programming technique (ISP).

Under ubuntu 16.04 just install with this:

sudo apt-get install avrdude

Under Arch/Manjaro:

sudo pacman -S avrdude

AVRDUDE - Win32

Only available AVRDUDE distribution is 32-bit in case of windows.

Here is the locaiton it can be downloaded from:

https://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/avrdude/

Look for avrdude-6.3-mingw32.zip size 218K released on 17-Feb-2016 10:03

We have included the same in the win32 directory. One can extract this file the same directory.

Note: If you do not have the avrdude program in path then leonardoUploader would not work.

Installation - Linux

git clone https://github.com/vanbwodonk/leonardoUploader.git
cd leonardoUploader/linux
make
sudo make install

Installation - Win32

Pre-requsite : Need MinGW installed

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/

Install using the mingw-get-setup.exe program.

Select the following:

• mingw-developer-toolkit
• mingw32-base
• mingw-gcc-g++
• msys-base

Avrdude in PATH

Need the AVRDUDE in path so that leonardoUploader can perform the operations.

Follow the steps outlined AVRDUDE - Win32.

Then:

Open the MSYS Terminal : C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat

And type:

git clone https://github.com/vanbwodonk/leonardoUploader.git
cd leonardoUploader/win32
make

Next:

Add the directory location leonardoUploader/win32 to Windows PATH variable to have direct commandline access.

Usage

leonardoUploader [PORT] [FILE.hex]

Example

leonardoUploader /dev/ttyACM0 Blink.ino.hex

or for Windows

leonardoUploader COM10 Blink.ino.hex
