AVRprog2

Overview

AVRprog2 is a fast USB 2.0 ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programmer) for AVR microcontrollers.

High-Performance On-Board USB 2.0 Programmer

Vey fast, on-board USB 2.0 programmer with a simplified driver installation.

The programmer is specifically designed for In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP).

Description

Connecting Programmer

When connected to a prototype device, the AVRprog2 programmer becomes IN-SYSTEM programmer.

With ZIF socket, it becomes a standard programmer used for a large-scale production.

One of the possible ways of connecting AVRprog2 to a microcontroller is via an IDC10 connector. Refer to figure on the right. You just have to place a 2x5 connector between the microcontroller and other on-board modules. By embedding the AVRprog2 connector you will be able to perform In-System AVR Programming.

A flat cable with an IDC10 female connector on its end is used here. When creating a target device, it is necessary to provide the appropriate 10-pin male connector with 2.54 mm spacing between pins on it. The connector pins should be connected to the microcontroller pins. Their position varies depending on the microcontroller's type and package.

Programmer Software

With complementary software, the AVRprog2 programmer represents a great tool for all those working with Atmel's AVR microcontrollers. The microcontroller is connected to the AVRprog2 programmer via 6 lines. Two of them are +5V and GND, while others are MOSI, MISO, SCK and MCLR. Unlike programmers whose operation is based on bootloaders, and which need to put a part of their memory at bootload program's diposal, AVRprog2 programs microcontrollers externally so that the entire memory is available to the programmer.

Windows^® Certified Drivers

Drivers for the programmer are Microsoft^® Windows^® XP, Windows^® Vista and Windows^® 7 certified. The Windows certificate is a proof that the programmer supports mentioned Windows operating systems and is immediately recognized by the system, which guarantees correct Plug and Play functionality. Driver certification provides users with a wide range of benefits such as stable functioning, the ability to install and delete drivers without rebooting and compatibility with future versions of Windows.

Supported Microcontrollers

The AVRprog2 programmer supports a wide range of microcontrollers including over 90 AVR microcontrollers. Newly released AVR microcontrollers will be supported by a new version of AVRFlash software that is updated regularly. Here is a list of all microcontrollers supported by the AVRprog2 programmer:
