Simple ISP Progammer for AVR Microcontroller
This ISP Programmer is used to programs the microcontroller AVR (upload *.hex or *.ihx file to MCU). There’re many kind of AVR ISP programmer such as AVRSTK500, Atmel AVRprog(AVR910), Dontronic DT006, Kanda System STK200+/300. For beginner in microcontroller, it is better if we use simple ISP but it still work fine. The best choice for me is Kanda System STK200+/300. because it’s only need IC buffer 74HC244 and connected to parallel port. So, i think is easier for newbie.
here is the schematic
How to Use It?
After you build this then download demo version of CodeVision AVR from http://www.hpinfotech.ro. Installed it. After finishing install, go to setting > programmer > and choose Kanda System STK200+/300.
Connect the ISP to parallel port and microcontroller to ISP. open CodeVision AVR go to Tools>Chip Programmer> Read> Chip Signature. Don’t forget choose apropriate microcontroller type.
