Finally a guide that adressed my problem. May i add that it only worked -for me- connecting the board to an USB 2.0 port, NOT THE BLUE USB 3 PORTS...Thanks a lot!
Your comment saved me, thanks. I thought I migth lose my mind. If somebody have Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), just try different USB.
I wish I had watched this before I started trying to get mine to work! It would've saved me a TON of frustration. Got it working thanks to your video :)
Very informative, at least now I may have a chance, once my development boards arrive. You have highlighted so many problems, and provided solutions. Even if I do run into other problems, I am quite certain that you have saved me an enormous amount of time and effort. Many thanks for sharing such valuable knowledge.
For the first time I've even had an arduino to play with, and within 30 min while following the instructions above I was able to run my first program. There was only one confusing problem that I came across, when I connected the digispark mini to my windows 10 laptop, windows bleeps in and out and in and out again and again, untill I uploaded the first program from Arduino IDE.
I was at my wits end as how to make Win10 64 bit recognize the board. But your video made my day! Thanks a lot! Also the little behind the scene peek was really hilarious. It only goes to show how much effort goes into the making of each of these videos. Thanks again.
Thank you for your comment, yes it does take quite a bit of time to create one video, from the idea, to making it work, shooting the video and creating the tutorial page :) But it's all worth it when reading comments like yours and knowing that it's helping others :) Thanks for watching!
Thanks for all the details Edit: I got confused because my board was reconnecting again and again and not showing up as anything in the device manager at all but yours connected, disconnected and stayed quit... that's because you had already programmed it before shooting this video(correct me if I am wrong) and I was working with new one... Long story short, just follow the steps if it doesn't show up as unknown device in the device manager, try uploading a program anyway.... program with upload successfully and it will show up as digispark bootloader after that. No need to update drivers...
I have just received my digispark tiny 85 this evening, your Tutorial was the first one i decided on and everything went just find,I really appreciate your time and effort, Very easy to follow and understand. Thank-you
#include SoftRcPulseOut servo1; void setup() { servo1.attach(5); servo1.setMaximumPulse(2200); } void loop () { servo1.write(0); delay(1000); servo1.write(180); delay(1000); } using first "AVRISP mkll" and then "USBasp" any ideas? Thanks Joe
Thank you very much for your video it helped me to get my Digispark ATINY85 working as I had almost given up, I do wonder how you find out all the information, so thanks again Bob in the UK 2022 the PRICE FOR ONE NOW IS £4.00.
Again, thanks a million, now if I could just figure out what I wanted this for, I know I ran into a project that needed this, just can't recall what it was, there are so many great projects out there that I want to try before we go nomad again in November.
IF YOU'RE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH UPLOADING... Do not plug it in until you have compiled your sketch in the Arduino IDE. Keep it unplugged until you need to compile! After it compiles, it will instruct you to plug in the Tiny85. Perhaps this is because the bootloader is only listening for the first 5 seconds of the connection. After that, the chip switches to USB emulator mode. Please reply if this works. (BTW my chip is never even recognized by the PORT or GET BOARD INFO in the IDE! But it still works great.)
every time i compile my sketch it says "compilation error: exit status 1" which I'm pretty sure is the one for when a board isnt connected, it doesnt even ask me to plug it in
Mine doesn't go away after 5 seconds. I also don't see it under "Other Devices," for me it's under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers." And when I install the driver, it says that I already have the most updates driver. If anyone can help, I am desperate.
What I did; My board has a microusb connector and it was also coming up in universal serial bus devices, and I used zadig to replace the driver it had with libusb-win32 and it works
I followed everything fine until time 3:35 but my "port" menu option is still grey. I cannot find a port number in Windows device manager either. The board shows up as "Digispark bootloader" and looking at the properties does nor reveal a com port. I would not be able to select or type a comp port either, since the option is greyed out. :-(
I also have the same question, and later found not to connect the device directly "upload" when the Arduino IDE compiler will be completed, show "plug in device now...(will timeout in 60 seconds)", then plug in the device
how about some MAC OS.I am getting Running Digispark Uploader... Plug in device now... (will timeout in 60 seconds) > Please plug in the device ... > Press CTRL+C to terminate the program. > Device search timed out
there is an error compiling for board digispark and the only programmer shown is micronucleus and I cannot change it from there, is there a way to change the programmer so I can use the one you did?
After doing a lot of tests, measuring the voltage, using the USB 3.0 I discovery something... my MOUSE, when its plugged, makes the AtIny gets "USB Device not recognize"!! Two computers who was getting errors, when I remove all devices from USB worked well with no errors!! In the end it was my MOUSE!!! I believe that any peripheral can cause a driver conflict, causing instability!! So don´t forget to clean all USB and test only with the AtTiny kit!! A whole day to discover that!! Hope this help you too!! Thanx
On windows 7 I only did the first step to install the drivers, plugged it in and windows recognized it automaticly, I didnt need to go and update the driver manually everything worked just fine as soon as i plugged it. But still, thx for the helpful video!!
Thank you for the good tutorial! Here are the Links: Board Manager URL: digistump.com/package_digistump_index.json Windows driver: github.com/digistump/DigistumpArduino/releases/
Hi . I followed all the steps . And when i press shiw hidden devices , in device manager , unknown port dosen't apear , and when i insert de board in the usb , the led is green
I'm using win10 64 and newest version of arduino IDE. But I can't find digispark in the boards. I've seed multiple tutorials, but cannot find the digistump board. Any answer to my problem will be appreciated :)
Ah yes, it is a good thing that you put your name on all of your apps; As you may recall, I have used some of your apps to build things for my good wife of 49 years who has glaucoma, and needs precise timing on the drops she uses to control them, thus I built two of your great countdown timers, as well as one for my Ford Edge which needs her engine ran at least 5 minutes every time I stop the RV that tows her, and twice a year we tow her over 1500 miles. So it was that, while down in Arizona, I fell asleep whilst using my Macbook Pro, a full cup of hot coffee in my had. When I awoke from a dream it was with a StART, and the coffee flew from the cup and all over the Macbook, which died a steamy death in the Mohave Desert. I had already formatted my old laptop for my wife, who had spilled so many toast crums on her keyboard so as to render it useless, and in so doing formatted the hard drive so she could start with a new System. Well a trip to a hock shop in Kingman Arizona about 70 miles from where we were in the Mohave Desert, found me with a year old 17" laptop by Dell (I swore I would never own another Dell, but the price was so very right, I was to learn why later!) I set everything up on my new (to me) laptop and it seemed to work OK, so winter ended, and we made the trek home in our RV, towing my Ford Edge behind. Now we are in July, and the power brick failed, I think it was the cord, but can't be positive, so I ordered another that was sold as NEW OEM DELL, it looked like a DELL and worked for 2 days before it died. A few checks later and I learned it was only putting out 18.55 volts in comparison to the old one that was pumping 21-22 volts into the laptop. Well got a refund, but meanwhile the 1TB hard drive failed, thus all the data I had backed up from the laptop my wife now has and all the stuff I had sit up for Arduino was gone with the drive. 60 bucks later and I now have a cheap China clone 65 watt power brick (the old ones were 45 watt and you could boil water on them when they worked at all!) The new drive, while a bit slower because of a drop in RPM is holding well, and the power brick is cool enough to hold in my hand now, the battery is staying charged, and I am back here at your tutorial because I plum damn forgot how to program the AT TIny 85 in Digispark clothing! So thanks BILLION, I found your name that I could not, for the life of me think of, off a thermometer that I built long ago and have used for ever!
Love this story! It's great to hear that you managed to find the video again to help you remake your project. Thank you for sharing this and I hope my videos can help you again in the near future. Cheers!
por favor me ajuda, eu acidentalmente apertei 2x em "carregar" o arquivo .ino e inseri o digispark na USB para receber o código.... Acontece que depois disso o digispark nao responde mais, não consigo gravar outro código por cima e também não faz nada ao ligar no USB, somente um LED verde aparece e mais nada acontece, é possível formatar o digispark por Command Line ?
help when i go into the device manager and plug in my device, it does not appear. it also doesnt make a sound when i plug it in anyway. am i doing something wrong?
Thanks for the heads up, unfortunately for me windows 10 64 bit doesnt even detect them, i have tried three even after installing the drivers. Any ideas?
How come when I try to upload the Parola_Scrolling sketch to DigiSpark I get this? Error compiling for board Digispark (Default - 16.5mhz). It works fine with the Nano. Yes, all the drivers are installed for the DigiSpark and the Blink Sketch works. Please help!
as far as I remember I had difficulties finding the driver for the other board, the one with the micro USB connection to windows 10(x64) all I get there is driver errors. the one you demonstrated it installed and functioned nicely
sure its the same procedure on windows 10, thats what I did for the first board demonstrated here, however, for the second board the driver just did not seem to apply
i am using ubuntu and my arduino ide version is 2.0.2, while uploading the digispark sketch it is not detecting the digispark(Attiny 85) usb.. it is telling that its not connected.. plz help me to sort out this..
Great video, but unfortunately I am stuck at the part where the ATTiny85 board is supposed to appear in the Device Manager, my Windows 10 doesn't make the clunk audio cue when I plug or unplug the board as it does with other devices (yes, my speakers are turned on), so I can't click on it in Other Devices even with Show Hidden enabled, it just doesn't show up anywhere. I have proven that my USB cable is a data cable and not just a charge cable by connecting another device and downloading a photo from it (a simple old mobile phone). I'm well and truly stuck with this, having exactly the same problem on Linux. Really hope someone can help! I am using Arduino IDE version 1.8.19.
I think the problem for me may have been a batch of digispark clones from China that didn't have the bootloader present, I've come back to this after quite a while and I think this may be the answer to install the bootloader (I used method 1 - caveat I had to use v1 of the Arduino IDE) ruclips.net/video/fRroyd8sVsE/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Mine worked once, the very first time, and now whenever I plug it into my system, the system reports it as a failing device. I have never been able to upload to it again.
Can this dev board be made using the schematic and will the made version work in the same way ? Or is there a necessity to load something into the attiny(like a bootloader or some other program to make it compatible with with the board system)
I had using attiny85 microcontroller module the program also prefectly run on the board but my problem is when i remove the board on the power supply after few sec reconnect the power supply the upload program not be executed
Tip for those who are still struggling, use usb 2.0 instead of USB 3.1. This thing doesn't work with usb 3.1. I wasted almost 12 hrs for resolving the board was not detected by PC. At last i used an external usb 2.0 and it works. I'm not sure about usb 3.0.
hi,thanks for the video.I have a problem I use win 7 pro and did all the explination and drivers are ok. I see in the manager but my problem is arduino ide can not show me any comport connection but the computer see attiny 85 in device manager.What do you offer ? thanks
Thank you for this tutorial, all went well, i installed the drivers successfully, as well as the board to the IDE, but when i try to upload the program i don't get the message to connect just an error message, Please help.
Same. After plugging it in (multiple times) and doing "Scan for hardward changes" I still don't have any "Other Devices" category, and I can't find the "Unknown device" anywhere..
6 Years later and this is still a great source of info for Digispark beginners. Helped get mine up and running!
Finally a guide that adressed my problem. May i add that it only worked -for me- connecting the board to an USB 2.0 port, NOT THE BLUE USB 3 PORTS...Thanks a lot!
Thanks for sharing the USB 3.0 tip, and thanks for watching of course.
Your comment saved me, thanks. I thought I migth lose my mind. If somebody have Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), just try different USB.
I wish I had watched this before I started trying to get mine to work! It would've saved me a TON of frustration. Got it working thanks to your video :)

Really nice! I thought I had a defective unit till you showed me how to do it :) Now I gained 2 pretty tiny and awesome controllers Thank you
man after days of research you have finally solved my problem. THANK YOU. You deserve a nobel
LEGEND!!!! I have been having issues for ages, and i followed your video and all working now. Thanks you so much!!!!
Damn this is really helpful!!! You just have to watch the whole thing, and even the coming ON and OFF is explained, Thanks Mate.
Thanks for the comment, great to hear it helped! Thanks for watching the whole thing... Not a lot of viewer do that :)
I FOUND THE FELLOW AUSTRALIAN MATE
Thank you sooo much. i have had these for years and never been able to upload to them. your tutorial has taught me how :-)
This was the one which explained it very well and help me resolve the issue with the attiny85
You’ve still got it…this complete newb followed along and had success on the first try using win7
This was just the ticket! After going round and round this solved the problem of talking to the Digispark.
great tutorial, but next time you should post the board link in the description
and you should have posted it in your comment. smh
Thanks a lot man!!
This is so useful not just for this board but for any other piece of hardware that is not being detected properly.
Thanks again.
Thanks for all the details
Edit:
I got confused because my board was reconnecting again and again and not showing up as anything in the device manager at all but yours connected, disconnected and stayed quit... that's because you had already programmed it before shooting this video(correct me if I am wrong) and I was working with new one...
Long story short, just follow the steps if it doesn't show up as unknown device in the device manager, try uploading a program anyway.... program with upload successfully and it will show up as digispark bootloader after that.
No need to update drivers...
I have just received my digispark tiny 85 this evening, your Tutorial was the first one i decided on and everything went just find,I really appreciate your time and effort, Very easy to follow and understand.
Thank-you
Thanks for your comment, glad the tutorial helped you out! Thanks for watching as well :)
ditto, tho I'm having trouble finding a servo program that works with Arduino 1.8.7
#include
SoftRcPulseOut servo1;
void setup()
{
servo1.attach(5);
servo1.setMaximumPulse(2200);
}
void loop ()
{
servo1.write(0);
delay(1000);
servo1.write(180);
delay(1000);
}
using first "AVRISP mkll" and then "USBasp" any ideas? Thanks Joe
Brainy indeed! worked first time just as I was about to give up.
THANK YOU!
Your tutorial is very helpful. I would not have found the way around all "the traps".
Thanks! Finally got my drivers installed and code loaded onto the board with this video.
Thanks man, you saved a ton of time for me in regards to driver install!!
Thanks for watching, glad it helped!
I only wish I could Like and Subscribe yet again.
You have completely fixed the problems with my Attiny, and helped to save my sanity.
Thank you! I did it. Because of your video, I connect the digispark smoothly. Thank you very much.
Great to hear that the video helped, thanks for watching.
Thank you very much for your video it helped me to get my Digispark ATINY85 working as I had almost given up, I do wonder how you find out all the information, so thanks again Bob in the UK 2022 the PRICE FOR ONE NOW IS £4.00.
Thanks for the tutorial - FINALLY got my board working with the 85
you saved my job! thanks a lot man! cheers from mexico
Wow, great to hear that the video helped! Thanks for watching!
i am still getting " USB device not Recognize..."
what should i do?
Again, thanks a million, now if I could just figure out what I wanted this for, I know I ran into a project that needed this, just can't recall what it was, there are so many great projects out there that I want to try before we go nomad again in November.
I still can't get windows to install the driver it keeps saying beat driver is installed and will not switch to digispark
IF YOU'RE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH UPLOADING... Do not plug it in until you have compiled your sketch in the Arduino IDE. Keep it unplugged until you need to compile! After it compiles, it will instruct you to plug in the Tiny85. Perhaps this is because the bootloader is only listening for the first 5 seconds of the connection.

every time i compile my sketch it says "compilation error: exit status 1" which I'm pretty sure is the one for when a board isnt connected, it doesnt even ask me to plug it in
Thank you for a very clear video. I was able to make my Attiny work!
Great to hear the video helped! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much it works! i have been researching a lot why it says unknow device. but now it works now i can upload some codes, Thank you!
If I put my device in USB-slot, it starts to blink after 5 seconds, but it is not displayed in the device list, even not as unrecognized device :-(
Is it working in victims PC without driver Installation?
Grand Thank you!!! great help! I did have to go back and forth between video to get the links as mentioned below...Keep up the good work!
Brilliant video, thankyou++, followed it step by step and all working perfectly.
Great to hear that the video helped! Thanks for watching!
hi i have done everys step and still cannot load my device i got a message saying bootloader ready to use
Mine doesn't go away after 5 seconds. I also don't see it under "Other Devices," for me it's under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers." And when I install the driver, it says that I already have the most updates driver. If anyone can help, I am desperate.
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
What I did;
My board has a microusb connector and it was also coming up in universal serial bus devices, and I used zadig to replace the driver it had with libusb-win32 and it works
First Surname what dis you do?
Finally... something that helped me. Funny how one little deviation can make the whole thing not work.
Thank you so MUCH!! was really struggling, but your step by step guide sorted it out.
I followed everything fine until time 3:35 but my "port" menu option is still grey. I cannot find a port number in Windows device manager either. The board shows up as "Digispark bootloader" and looking at the properties does nor reveal a com port. I would not be able to select or type a comp port either, since the option is greyed out. :-(
I have the same problem :(
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Same problem here.. any solutions yet?
I did some research and found out that it's not meant to appear under the COM port, but thanks anyway man
I also have the same question, and later found not to connect the device directly "upload" when the Arduino IDE compiler will be completed, show "plug in device now...(will timeout in 60 seconds)", then plug in the device
Thats not the problem. even I had the same problem too...Follow the steps in the video..your LED will blink too....PORT is not the problem..Forget it
Did as you said and now my board is working. Thank you!
Great to hear that the video is still helping others with their DigiSpark. Thanks for watching!
Thumbs up for the magnificent Pebble you have :D
I really miss my old Pebble, it was a great watch. Thank for watching!
Great to see Pebblers all around the internet. I miss mine a lot even though I have an Apple Watch
Thank you for preventing me from smashing all 10pcs of my digispark boards I just bought.
Glad to hear the video helped saved the lives of those tiny DigiSpark boards :) Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for helping me out, i was struggling alot.
how about some MAC OS.I am getting
Running Digispark Uploader...
Plug in device now... (will timeout in 60 seconds)
> Please plug in the device ...
> Press CTRL+C to terminate the program.
> Device search timed out
Dankjewel, zeer goede uitleg !
there is an error compiling for board digispark and the only programmer shown is micronucleus and I cannot change it from there, is there a way to change the programmer so I can use the one you did?
My Computer detect the digispark, then my Computer send it out (with tone) and this very fast.
I don't know what I should do :(
What is the problem?
In a word .... FANTASTIC!!!!
After doing a lot of tests, measuring the voltage, using the USB 3.0 I discovery something... my MOUSE, when its plugged, makes the AtIny gets "USB Device not recognize"!! Two computers who was getting errors, when I remove all devices from USB worked well with no errors!! In the end it was my MOUSE!!!

Mac?
Where to find hex file for firmware HID update?
Many, many thanks for that video!!!! It really help me :)
Great stuff, it solved my problems before they appeared! Thanks.
I'm using win10 64 and newest version of arduino IDE. But I can't find digispark in the boards. I've seed multiple tutorials, but cannot find the digistump board. Any answer to my problem will be appreciated :)
If you find a solution, please let me know! I'm currently hunting for the same thing
update: today 12Feb2021 you have to go to github.com/digistump/DigistumpArduino/tree/master/tools to get the windows driver
Ah yes, it is a good thing that you put your name on all of your apps; As you may recall, I have used some of your apps to build things for my good wife of 49 years who has glaucoma, and needs precise timing on the drops she uses to control them, thus I built two of your great countdown timers, as well as one for my Ford Edge which needs her engine ran at least 5 minutes every time I stop the RV that tows her, and twice a year we tow her over 1500 miles.

Super! Made it working in 5 minutes
Any troubleshooting tips on the USB driver install on Win10? I still can't get it to see the board.
How come when I try to upload the Parola_Scrolling sketch to DigiSpark I get this?
Error compiling for board Digispark (Default - 16.5mhz).
It works fine with the Nano.
Yes, all the drivers are installed for the DigiSpark and the Blink Sketch works.
Please help!
Thanks alot bro u r amazing u save me i am returning the digispark board util i see ur video
as far as I remember I had difficulties finding the driver for the other board, the one with the micro USB connection to windows 10(x64) all I get there is driver errors. the one you demonstrated it installed and functioned nicely
On Win8.1 you hve to remove the obligatory driver signature detection to get the drivers installed, I guess it would be the same on Win10
sure its the same procedure on windows 10, thats what I did for the first board demonstrated here, however, for the second board the driver just did not seem to apply
i am using ubuntu and my arduino ide version is 2.0.2, while uploading the digispark sketch it is not detecting the digispark(Attiny 85) usb..
it is telling that its not connected..
plz help me to sort out this..
Great tutorial thank you very much, I am half way through at the moment but need to rest my brain for a while... :)
Great video, but unfortunately I am stuck at the part where the ATTiny85 board is supposed to appear in the Device Manager, my Windows 10 doesn't make the clunk audio cue when I plug or unplug the board as it does with other devices (yes, my speakers are turned on), so I can't click on it in Other Devices even with Show Hidden enabled, it just doesn't show up anywhere.

Thanks man, you helped me alot
Can you please tell me what I do with these pins that arrived with them? do I need them for anything?
Can these be programmed to look like a mouse and/or keyboard to the host computer?
I dont get it to work. Once i install the drivers and plug it in, it keep popping on and off somehow. how to fix it?
Mine worked once, the very first time, and now whenever I plug it into my system, the system reports it as a failing device. I have never been able to upload to it again.
Can this dev board be made using the schematic and will the made version work in the same way ? Or is there a necessity to load something into the attiny(like a bootloader or some other program to make it compatible with with the board system)
If you have multiple digisparks, do you have to configure each one in device manager or just do it for one of them?
Very helpful! got mine working thanks to you. A definite sub and new fan!!!
Thank you!! It was very helpful!
Great to hear it helped, thank you for the comment and for watching!
Finally. Thank You.
I had using attiny85 microcontroller module the program also prefectly run on the board but my problem is when i remove the board on the power supply after few sec reconnect the power supply the upload program not be executed
Great starting point
Very easy to follow, thank you!
thanks brother. worked on first try
Thank you for sharing.... This solved all my problems.
I just purchased a couple, but the PC doesn;t even detect them. I'm still working on it, but they might be toast.
Same here bro, ubuntu doesn't even detect it and no drivers seems to fix it.. Frustrating
It did not work for me. The driver did not recognize the ATTiny85. I will have to buy a second board to make certain.
Thank you very much.
Tip for those who are still struggling, use usb 2.0 instead of USB 3.1. This thing doesn't work with usb 3.1. I wasted almost 12 hrs for resolving the board was not detected by PC. At last i used an external usb 2.0 and it works. I'm not sure about usb 3.0.
hi,thanks for the video.I have a problem I use win 7 pro and did all the explination and drivers are ok. I see in the manager but my problem is arduino ide can not show me any comport connection but the computer see attiny 85 in device manager.What do you offer ? thanks
even after installing the driver i am not able to detect the digistump hardware in my laptop. pls help !!
Thank you for this tutorial,
all went well, i installed the drivers successfully,
as well as the board to the IDE,
but when i try to upload the program i don't get the message to connect
just an error message,
Please help.
6:34 This is where I fail. Instead of installing the driver Windows tells me it knows better and "the optimum driver is already installed".
Same here, I even tried to delete the device and start again from the beginning, but it didn't work.
@@psslg2467 same here
If I only want to use 1 pin, is there any way I can keep the USB connection open?
thanks for this video. It helped so much!
thank you sooooooooo much this was a big help
My digispark doesn’t show up on the device manager when I plug it in
Same. After plugging it in (multiple times) and doing "Scan for hardward changes" I still don't have any "Other Devices" category, and I can't find the "Unknown device" anywhere..
Matthew Brunetti oh I got it to work by just uploading the code I’m pretty sure it flashes when u plug it in but I’m not sure i did this 4 months ago
