This programmer requires only a basic terminal program capable of uploading an ascii PIC HEX file. It does not matter what operating system or computer (MAC, Win98, XP, Vista, DOS, Linux, etc.) is used to talk to it. All of the software necessary for.... -
C1 is a charge pump capacitor*. This works voltage doubler. When TxD is negative voltage, C1 is charged through D7 from GND. If TxD carries out turn-on, since it will become positive voltage, the voltage charged in C1 is raised. The created high voltage is.... -
The SCHAER+ programmer is a programmer for PIC18 family from a PC parallel port (LPT). It is derivated from the SCHAER programmer I used to download my projects in PIC1684. The SCHAER+ programmer should be improved to use a USB connection, without any.... -
The idea behind this project is to provide some means of loading a program into a PIC that will then be able to program other PICs in a more conventional way. How do you program a PIC to be a programming device without a programmer, and why would you want to.... -
As you know the AT90S1200 microcontroller include an internal RC oscillator that is disabled by default. If you want to change it (enable or disable) you must to program it with parallel mode. The most programmers working with serial mode and its not.... -
The EEprom programmer software supports the following devices 28C16, 28C256, 28C17, 29C256, 28C64. Diode D1 and resistor R1 provide the VDD isolation when programming the 24 pin devices. The jumper J3 must be shorted for 24 pin devices, and open circuit for.... -
In the article you will find a description of the universal PIC programmer, which suggested the involvement of Jens Madsen Dyekjar [ http://www.jdm.homepage.dk/newpic.htm ]. Program allows districts PIC12C5XX, 12C67X, 16C55X, 16C61, 16C62X, 16C71, 16C71X,.... -
Nowadays, USBis the most popular connection connection between PC and peripherals such as AVR programmers, printers, scanners etc. For that reason I had to modify my old serial AVR In-System-Programmer (ISP) to work with USB connection. You can say, "use a.... -
The above circuit uses RS232 for interfacing with PC. It is very simple circuit & works very well with PC. Power is drawn from usb port OR needs external supply of 5V. The value of the crystal is very critical at AT89C2051 and must be 11. 0592MHz. Here.... -
This Lazy Old Geek is also an Arduino Geek. If you are an Arduino Geek, one of the common microcontrollers used by Arduinos is the Atmega328 chip. In order to use Arduino software, the Atmega must have bootloader software on it. I didn`t realize there was a.... -
Circuit schematic for the classic PIC serial programming cable. There is also a high resolution version of the image, and a Scalable Vector Graphics source file for printing. Please note that the SVG file might not display properly in some browsers..... -
The chief advantage of this programmer is its ability to protect both the target and the PC from odd voltages when one side is powered off. The buffers are open-drain, and each is pulled up to the Vcc of the receiving party. The MC74LCX07 has an operating.... -
As a fully-featured Linux computer there are many external programmers that can be used with your Raspberry Pi to program the Atmel AVR range of microprocessors. It`s also possible to use the general purpose input/output lines (GPIOs) found on the Raspberry.... -
Diode D1 and resistor R1 provide the VDD isolation when programming the 24 pin devices. The jumper J3 must be shorted for 24 pin devices, and open circuit for 28 pin device programming. Following EEPROMs are pin compatible with their EPROMs version, .. -
Microcontrollers family AT89C has parallel programming interface of flash memory. In order to write information we need to supply programming voltage 12V and for controlling almost all pins of ports are used. This is why parallel programming is done in.... -

This simple AVR Programmer able to transfer hex programs to most ATMEL AVR microcontrollers. It is more reliable than most other simple AVR programmers available out there and can be built in very short amount of time. This Programmer support the AVR.... -
Atmega 128 is like other AVR microcontrollers. They are ISP is in-system programmable. Earlier I wrote an article about AVR ISP programmer where 74HC244 buffer is used. Using buffer is safer for your AVR. But what if you need 128 atmega programmer without.... -
This ISP Programmer can be used either for in-system programming or as a stand-alone spi programmer for Atmel ISP programmable devices. The programming interface is compatible to STK200 ISP programmer hardware so the users of STK200 can also use the software....
