Wellon VP-480 Universal Programmer

VP-480 Universal Programmer with 48-pin ZIF Socket

This programmer is for a range of devices, including most AVR microcontrollers. It is the lowest cost programmer for the whole AVR microcontroller range.
It also supports EEPROMs, dsPIC, PIC and other microcontrollers like AT89, plus PLDs and flash memory.
The full device support can be seen here, in new window.
Other Universal Programmers in the range also support Microchip devices plus devices from other manufacturers.
See Wellon Programmer Range for an overview of the universal programmer range.
