USB AVR Programmer with JTAG

USB AVR Programmer with ISP and JTAG

AVR In System Programmer (AVR ISP) for the USB port on the PC. Packed with extra features for ATtiny, AT90S and ATmega AVR microcontrollers. This USB AVR programmer is powered from the USB bus, has low voltage target support, is very fast and supports JTAG as well as AVR ISP. Command line and DLL versions are available free of charge.

• AVR Programmer powered by USB bus
• Multiple AVR ISP from 1 PC
• Conforms to USB power requirements, including sleep
• Supports USB v1.1 protocol and USB v2.0 compatible
• Direct USB drivers not Virtual Serial Port
• Programs AVR microcontrollers from 1.8V to 5V
• Uses Kanda standard AVRISP 10-way target interface
• 6-way ISP adapter available
• AVR JTAG programming option and adapter included
• Automatic program start on insertion option
• Loads Atmel ELF production files
• Edit fuses on fuse screens or in Hex

Windows OS support

Supports Windows 2000, XP, VISTA, Windows7, Windows8, Windows 10, Win11 - 32 and 64-bit.

Windows 98 and ME are supported up to Software version v2.1.7, available on our support pages. This software version will NOT be updated in future.
Win 95 and early Win98 should work with Microsoft USB update, up to v2.1.7

NT4 is NOT supported, as Microsoft have not updated kernal support and no driver is available

Software Features

• Simple install and detection of each AVR programmer
• Select AVR ISP or JTAG programmer from drop down list
• Full AVR Fuse and Lockbit support on user friendly screen, with improved default values to improve device detection
• Or Edit fuses as Hex values
• Colour coded Flash and EEPROM buffers can be edited in Hex and ASCII
• User defined serial numbering in Flash or EEPROM
• Comprehensive Check Sum support CR16/32, XOR 16/32
• Flexible Auto-program options
• Pop-up Reset on Error feature prevents errors being ignored - can be disabled
• Plug and Program mode - programmer starts automatically when new target is detected, if this mode is set. Now with improved interface to identify programmer and operation.
• Full verify or only Verify pages with data for extra speed
• NEW Clock Source screen uses clock type not Fuse bits for ease of setting correct clock
• NEW support for Binary files, as well as Intel Hex, Motorola etc.
• Read Calibration bytes
• Load ELF files, including device, fuses and lock bit settings
