ATprogISPUSB02

The ATprogISPUSB02 is an MLAB-developed ISP (In-System Programmer) for Atmel AVR microcontrollers. The module is powered via USB, providing a power output selectable between 3.3V and 5V to power the target microcontroller.

ATprogISPUSB02A

Functional Overview

This device is designed with an embedded firmware that grants compatibility with the STK500 programming protocol, enabling the user to interact with a broad range of microcontrollers and software programming environments.

The ATprogISPUSB02A allows for direct programming of the AVR family of microcontrollers through the ISP interface. It can be used to write and erase flash memory, EEPROM, and set fuse bits on the microcontroller.

One of the unique features of this programmer module is its ability to flash bootloaders onto ATmega microcontrollers, effectively transforming them into Arduino-compatible devices. This ability to manipulate the boot sequence and firmware of the microcontroller opens up the versatility of Arduino's expansive library of community-developed code and resources.
