I'm trying to program my ATtiny 13 - 20PU. An it seems to work, but there is no action upon the "delay" command. If on the sketch below I comment out the "High" line, my led is off all the time and whenever I have a Pin 4 High, it's on all the time! Basically this seems to be a frequency/fuse/bootloader problem and made me think the upload was broken.
I added a led between the tiny's pin 3 (digital pin 4) and ground with a 1k current limiting resistor. This one is for testing with the attached sketch. I also tried this breadboard circuit, which gives exactly the same results.
Upon upload to the tiny I get this:
Sketch uses 380 bytes (37%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1,024 bytes.
Global variables use 8 bytes of dynamic memory.
(Everybody warns about 2 errors occuring upon a proper upload - I don't get those).

And I choose the settings: Board ATtiny, Processor ATtiny13, Clock 9.6 MHz (internal), Port Arduino Uno (same as when I upload the ISP sketch), Programmer Arduino as ISP. I upload by clicking "Upload using Programmer".
Arduino Software is 1.6.4, the programmer Arduino is an Uno SMD edition. I used this programmer and this tutorial for smeezkitty core13.
I'm trying to upload this sketch:
// Blink sketch to test ATtiny Chips
// ATMEL ATTINY13 / ARDUINO
//
// +-\/-+
// ADC0 (D 5) PB5 1|* |8 Vcc
// ADC3 (D 3) PB3 2| |7 PB2 (D 2) ADC1
// ADC2 (D 4) PB4 3| |6 PB1 (D 1) PWM1
// GND 4| |5 PB0 (D 0) PWM0
// +----+
const int LED_PIN = 4; // digital pin
const int DELAY_TIME = 1000; // time between blinks [ms]
void setup() {
pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW);
delay(DELAY_TIME);
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH);
delay(DELAY_TIME);
}
Trying to burn a bootloader with the same settings as uploading to the tiny and then tools -> burn bootloader, get's me the error:
"efuse" memory type not defined for part "ATtiny13"
Error while burning bootloader.
Skimming through the data sheet I noticed that the tiny13 - 20PU (the 20) stand for 20 MHz,... theoretically one should be able to downclock them to the ordinary 10 MHz, but maybe this is my problem?
Tools -> Board -> ATtiny85 (w/ Arduino as ISP)andTools -> Programmer -> Arduino as ISP- the messages you are seeing suggest the IDE is targetting anSTK500programmer. This may be right as several programmers emulate an STK500 - but it might be worth checking/experimenting with this.attiny.upload.protocol = avrispto your boards.txt.
