This project will enable the USB * AVR series of microcontrollers to act as a clone of the official Atmel AVRISP-MKII programmer, usable within * Atmel Studio or with any software capable of driving a real Atmel AVRISP-MKII programmer. In its most * basic form, it allows for the programming of AVR TINY, MEGA and XMEGA devices at the programmer's VCC voltage from * within Atmel Studio with no special hardware other than the USB AVR and the parts needed for the USB * interface. If the user desires, more advanced circuits incorporating level conversion can be made to allow for the * programming of target AVRs running at a different voltage to the programmer. * * This device spoofs Atmel's official AVRISP-MKII device PID so that it remains compatible with Atmel's AVRISP-MKII * drivers. It is currently tested working under the following configurations: * * - <b>Windows:</b> Atmel Studio 7, with alternative driver * - <b>Windows:</b> AVRDUDE 6.2, with alternative driver * - <b>Linux:</b> AVRDUDE 6.1 * * <b>Note that this clone requires a libUSB based driver under Windows,</b> due to an incompatible change in the official * Jungo based driver. The alternative driver given here will function with both real and clone AVRISP devices in Atmel * Studio 7 onwards under Windows - and as a bonus, also provides AVRDude access to the programmer. * * As of Atmel Studio version 7.0.1417 the legacy Jungo driver has been deprecated in favor of an official libUSB based * driver, making the driver packaged here superfluous. Use the driver packaged here only if you are still using an earlier * Atmel Studio 7 build, otherwise the official Atmel libUSB driver should be used. * * Note that this design currently has the following limitations: * - No reversed/shorted target connector detection and notification * - A separate header is required for each of the ISP, PDI and TPI programming protocols that the user wishes to use * * On AVR models with an ADC converter, the USB AVR's AVCC pin should be tied to 5V (e.g. VBUS) and the * \c VTARGET_ADC_CHANNEL token should be set to an appropriate ADC channel number in the project makefile for VTARGET * detection to operate correctly. On models without an ADC converter, VTARGET will report a fixed 3.3V level at all times * which should allow the programmer to remain compatible at the protocol level with all AVR devices. * * While this application can be compiled for USB AVRs with as little as 8KB of FLASH, for full functionality 16KB or more * of FLASH is required. On 8KB devices, ISP or PDI/TPI protocol programming support can be disabled to reduce program size. * * \section Sec_KnownIssues Known Issues: * * \par XMEGA EEPROM programming fails in some cases. * Several users have reported that XMEGA EEPROM programming fails unless the chip is erased first. If a non-blank EEPROM * is present, writing further EEPROM data causes corruption. * <a href="https://github.com/abcminiuser/lufa/issues/25">LUFA issue tracker entry</a>. * * \section Sec_Installation Installation * The programmer supports multiple platforms, both Windows and Linux. * * \subsection SSec_LinuxInstallation Linux Installation * On Linux systems, the programmer should be usable out of the box with no special setup other than (on some systems) * editing of the system permissions to allow the programmer to be used from a non-elevated (root) context. The programmer * is compatible with the free open source AVRDude programming software project. * * \subsection SSec_WindowsInstallation Windows Installation * On Windows systems, due to an unfortunate limitation of the USB AVR devices and the Atmel Studio platform, the programmer * requires an alternative libUSB based driver. Uninstall the existing Jungo driver for the device (if installed) and replace * it with the driver that ships with this project, to enable access to the programmer in Atmel Studio and AVRDUDE. * * \section Sec_ISP ISP Connections * Connections to the device for SPI programming (when enabled): * * <table> * <tr> * <th><b>Programmer Pin:</b></th> * <th><b>Target Device Pin:</b></th> * <th><b>ISP 6 Pin Layout:</b></th> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>MISO</td> * <td>PDO</td> * <td>1</td> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>ADCx <b><sup>1</sup></b></td> * <td>VTARGET</td> * <td>2</td> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>SCLK</td> * <td>SCLK</td> * <td>3</td> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>MOSI</td> * <td>PDI</td> * <td>4</td> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>PORTx.y <b><sup>2</sup></b></td> * <td>/RESET</td> * <td>5</td> * </tr> * <tr> * <td>GND</td> * <td>GND</td> * <td>6</td> * </tr> * </table> * * In addition, the AVR's OCR1A pin will generate a 4MHz clock, to act as an external rescue device clock if the * fuses have been mis-set.
