If you have purchased the SORKIT1 here at CircuitGizmos, or even if you purchased the parts somewhere else, you might be interested in the Gizmo build of the circuit board controller. The Society of Robots instructions here have a handful of steps for building the $50 robot. Steps 3A, 3B, and 3C have to do [...]
I’m still testing the newest USBmicro firmware. Meanwhile I thought I would document a little serial port to AVR programmer I made. The design is from a schematic on the Internet. Obviously the design was by Olimex. Note that the simple programmers of this type only work with a laptop or PC with a “real” [...]
I read a post on the Society of Robots a couple of days ago. The original poster asked how to connect a parallel port of a PC to an AVR in order to program the AVR. This was the first way that I programmed AVRs – before I had programming tools for the AVR. I [...]
The “mightyOhm” blog posts a solution to a problem that plagues a lot of people. When you hose up the fuse settings on an AVR, what can you do to fix the problem? Put the AVR into high-voltage programming mode to fix it, that’s what! Very clever use of an AVR to fix an AVR… [...]
