programmer for ATmega162

Started by Patrick Urban May 3, 2003
Hi,

I found this group in the web as I have looked for
a freeware tool which allows to program the new 162er
devices.

Does anybody knows such a tool. I do not have a STK500,
but only a STK200 like dongle.

Thanks in advance for your answers,
Patrick Urban


I'm confused...You want software that will program the atmega162 using your STK200 type dongle?

Have you tried the latest version of AVR Studio?

Hi Jeremy,

I use 4.06 Build 223.

Perhaps ATMEL has a newer version, but with my version there is
only a support for the STK500. Or did I miss something?

So I am not using the STK100/200/300/500 but only a self made ISP
dongle. The schematic for this dongle can be found e.g. at
www.lancos.com -> PonyProg -> AVR ISP for STK 200/300.

BTW: PonyProg should also support the 162er now. I downloaded
the latest version yesterday and the 162er are listed.
Nevertheless the tool diplayed that it can not detect the device
(devices like the at9028515 or 2313 are deteced by the software
using the dongle).

The same as for PonyProg is for YAAP!

Any hint would be helpfull.

BR,

Well to my knowledge there are two different serial dongles available for PonyProg. One of them (the one I use) uses a AT90s1200 to communicate with the serial port and the chip to be programmed (there is another 74x series chip on the board too, forget what it is now.) The other uses discreate components.

The newest version of AVR Studio supports the ATMega162, I would download it. it's version 4.6 - I had problems installing this version here though (probably more a problem with my computer than anything else) so I had to back one revision, it worked fine.

As far as getting PonyProg to work with the ATMega162, I am clueless. Mostly I use Bascom from MCS Electronics for programming my chips.

Cheers

Hi Jeremy,

I think my problem is that only the STK500 is supported
in my AVRStudio versiopn. There is this plug-in
manager in the menu "tools" but only one plug-in
component is defined (STK500DLL).

Anybody in this group who knows where to find and how to install
other plug-ins?

Jeremy: Do you have the schematics and the source code for
your 1200 uC based dongle? May I ask, if you can send it
if you have it? BR,
