ATTiny didn't come with TX/RX Pins, so I have to make it by myself.
Got it from http://www.bot-thoughts.com/2012/12/attiny-software-serial-tx-in-assembly.html
Slightly modify it because avra didn’t compile it original source
.include "../tn13Adef.inc" ; definitions for ATtiny13A
.cseg
.org 0x00
rjmp start ; executed after reset
start:
ldi r16, 0x6D ; 'm'
ldi r17, 8 ; put 8 in counter register
txloop:
lsr r16 ; shift off the next bit, LSB first
brcs Send1 ; if it is 1 (C=1) then send 1
Send0:
cbi PORTB, PB0 ; send a 0=low
rjmp BitDone
Send1:
sbi PORTB, PB0 ; send a 1=high
BitDone:
dec r17 ; bitcnt--
breq start ; if bitcnt == 0, start over
rjmp txloop ; else do the next bit
Build, compile and upload it

I use USB-to-TTL, and after several fail attempt to compile and upload using usbasp, I’m getting annoyed, so I use hc-05 (a bluetooth module) to communicate with ATTiny. Just connect the RX pin to PB0.

modify it
note that
will generate error
edit it to
not sure why avra refuse the first formatting
(of course the code above still won't work, it lacks the baud rate :) )
