The project utilizes an open source Atmel AVR microcontroller while incorporating a state of the art USB programmer. The firmware of the USB programmer can work for almost any AVR microcontroller on ...

[Steve] created an AVR programmer using an old USB keyboard. We feature a bunch of AVR programmers, but this one is made from parts that many people will have lying around. There are two components: ...

The circuit of AVR In-System-Programmer (ISP) has been modified to function with USB connection to a PC. The modification of the old AVR ISP includes the replacement of two transistors which will be ...

Turning an Arduino of virtually any sort into a simple AVR 6-pin ISP programmer is old hat. But when Atmel came out with a series of really tiny AVR chips, the ATtiny10 and friends with only six pins ...

The programmer communicates with PC using protocol compatible with DS89C4X0, which is described in Ultra-High-Speed Flash Microcontroller User's Guide (USER GUIDE 4833), section 15: PROGRAM LOADING.

USB AVR programmer PCB and firmware files. There is Eagle PCB files for two versions: One with 5V target voltage only, other with selectable 3.3V and 5V target supply voltage. There is also a single ...

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today new AVR(R) microcontrollers combining USB controller and high performance analog features. The ATmega16U4 and ATmega32U4 reduce system cost in ...

Microchip has created an AVR microcontroller series with 12Mbit/s USB 2.0 and code protection. “As the next generation of Microchip 8-bit MCUs to integrate USB connectivity, the AVR DU family is ...

Not just for nerds, anyone with an interest in electronics, computers, or engineering can build a circuit to blink an LED or read a temperature sensor. The NerdKit will walk you through building the ...

One of my favourite things to do on a cold winter night is to heat up my soldering iron and sit down at my workbench for an hour of circuit board building. Unfortunately, many of the development ...
