New STK200-X AVR Dragon

New STK200-X AVR Board with AVR DRAGON

This starter kit is the best way to learn about AVR microcontrollers and how to program them. This isa complete AVR training kit with all the hardware included.

It is designed to get you started and covers all the basics before moving on to assembly language and C programming. It is popular with colleges and universities as well as individuals because it teaches you all about the AVR microcontroller in a clear, straightforward way using browser based tutorials, books and lots of sample code running on the hardware.

STK200-X AVR Dragon features

This kit allows debugging and programming of almost all AVR microcontrollers, in 8, 20, 28 and 40-pin packages, and is supplied with an ATmega16A 40-pin AVR microcontroller.

• AVR Dragon ICE, complete with leads, adapters and instructions
• Designed around Atmel Studio 7 AVR Development Environment
• AtmelStudio7, available as free download including C compiler
• STK200-X AVR Board has socket support for 8,20,28 and 40-pin microcontrollers
• STK200-X board has USB serial port interface, LED, switches, ADC, LCD and keypad interfaces
• Includes CD books on AVR and Embedded C programming
• Sample code, datasheets and instructions
• Complete browser based tutorials covering all you need to know
• No extra power supply needed, boarded powered by USB or AVR Dragon

AVR Development with STK200-X AVR Dragon

Atmel Studio 7 is a very good development environment, and comes with C Compiler to make working in C really easy. The kit has instructions on creating projects and connecting hardware to program and debug code from Studio.

The Get Going with AVR Book and Embedded C book cover the basics of the AVR and how to write code in assembly language or C and the sample code supplied covers all the major concepts, including UART, LCD and keypads. The tutorials provide a quick route to understanding the basics and running, writing and debugging code.
