Use a LCD i2c with attiny84

Using an ATtiny84 to drive an i2c LCD screen.

Target Hardware

• ATtiny84 MCU
• LCD display with i2c adaptor board.

Libraries installation

Three libraries are required.

• The tiny core. https://code.google.com/p/arduino-tiny/
• TinyWireM. This one is different from the official one has it support ATtiny84. http://www.scenelight.nl/?wpfb_dl=22
• LiquidCrystal. https://bitbucket.org/fmalpartida/new-liquidcrystal/downloads/LiquidCrystal_V1.2.1.zip

Libraries Modification

Tiny Core

The tiny core will need to see the new.cpp and new.h from the arduino core. An easy way get this working is to copy the file. On Linux platform this will be something like

cp /usr/share/arduino/hardware/arduino/cores/arduino/new.* /home/user/sketchbook/hardware/tiny/cores/tiny/
