But when I try to connect the board in my computer, I have this message
(Ubuntu dmesg command)
[11183.348043] usb 5-2: new low-speed USB device number 97 using uhci_hcd

I also tried on Windows, and it sais "USB Device Unrecognized"
Any Idea?
I worked a lot in this board, and now I dont know how to solve this.
thanks a lot!
"AVCC is the supply voltage pin (input) for all the A/D Converter channels. If the ADC is not used,
it should be externally connected to VCC. If the ADC is used, it should be connected to VCC
through a low-pass filter."
You are running the chip only partially powered.
There is also a lack of any power supply decoupling caps - should have a 0.1uF on every VCC/AVCC pin.
Try removing R4 - it may be interfering with your clock signal.

Why did you leave AVCC & AVCC2 not connected?

Hi,
It's not connected because I coudnt find the right inductor. It will be connected, but atually it isnt. I think USB port shoud work anyway...but i'm not sure.
Well except that I tied the AVCCs directly to VCC and that I'm using an oscillator and not a crystal, my (working) schematic is the same. However, I've seen similar dmesg outputs on some of my devices due to soldering problems at the USB connector. Also, are you sure the caterina bootloader is installed correctly? Fusebits set correctly?
Quote from my internal Wiki:
Bootloader Installation
In order to use the Atmega32U4 with the Arduino SDK, the Atmel bootloader that is factory-default has to be replaced. In our setup, we use the Arduino Leonardo bootloader. It is called 'Caterina' and can be found in the Arduino directory:
Good news, I did what you said, I had set the fuses as you propose and it worked. With "dmesg" command the board was recognized as a full speed usb device correctly (I think it was recognized as a mouse).
Then, just to check, I unpulgued the usb wire, and plugued it again, and nothing happened. This time, the board wasnt recognized. After that the board it's not working anymore. Microprocessor looks like dead. The voltage at Ucap (was 3.3v) now it is 0v. I cant reset de fuses with avrdude...I dont know whats happened.
Any Idea...??
I setted the fuses, plugued in, works, and then..die :S
The low fuse byte is wrong. 0xE0 is set for an external clock signal, not a crystal. You need to set the low fuse back to 0xFF for external Crystal Oscillator.

Well, you were right. I didnt realize that kopfkopfkopfaffe said he wasnt using a cristal. Now the board It's live again, but with this configuration
avrdude: safemode: lfuse reads as E0
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
(and external clock) I have the same problem at the begining of this post.
How often does it blink? In the video it looks like it's breathing a few times (soft fading blinking) and then it stays lit for a while and then continues with a regular blink of about .5 Hz. Is that correct? In my application, the bootloader breathes a few times and then the LED is constantly OFF. Did you upload a blink-skech or something like that?
What you can also do is try the LUFA bootloader by Adafruit:
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
**Modification in the Arduino IDE**
The bootloader will not be recognized by a fresh installation of the Arduino IDE. You need to modify the file "arduino-1.0.*n*/hardware/arduino/programmers.txt".
Add the following:

It is exactly as you said. Start with a breathing and then continues with a regular blink of 1Hz. I only burned the bootloader Caterina-Leonardo.hex.
Something weird to me is that after I had set the fuses like (e0, d8, cb - which was wrong because I have a external cristal), it works! The problem is that works only one time. That time My Ubuntu recognized as a high-speed usb device and also as a mouse. But after that doesnt work anymore (wich has sense because e0 its for external clock).
About the fuses, yep I read the datasheet, I am trying a fuse calculator, and this
Ok, I tried but no luck. The LUFA bootloader works right (led is working at pc6) but still no luck with usb.
I also tried a lot of configurations, with internal RC oscilator, with external clock. The bootloader seems to be working right because of the led (both LUA and Caterina-Leonardo) usb connection stills fails.
I tried out all of this configurations after study the 32u4 datasheet and the avr fuse calculator (every time with the right clock or oscilator configuration in the board, i mean, with a 16mhz external clock signal or without oscilator, or with an 16mhz external cristal)
1)
external oscilator with clock out
avrdude: safemode: lfuse reads as BF
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
avrdude: safemode: Fuses OK
2)
external oscilator with clock out and dividing 8 times o clock
avrdude: Device signature = 0x1e9587
avrdude: safemode: lfuse reads as 3F
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
3)
external clock signal and clock out
avrdude: Device signature = 0x1e9587
avrdude: safemode: lfuse reads as 92
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
4)
external clock signal and clock out
avrdude: safemode: lfuse reads as A2
avrdude: safemode: hfuse reads as D8
avrdude: safemode: efuse reads as CB
avrdude: safemode: Fuses OK
nothing works.
I'm start thinking that the chip has a problem...which is really bad.
If anyone have any idea or anything else to test, it would be great.
I also had tested continuity from the chip microcontroller to the end of the usb wire, and its fine.
I had tested voltage in every pin of the microcontroller, and everything its perfect.
kopfkopfkopfaffe:
Can you post your layout and pictures of the board (bottom side)?
For Sure. The layout its in « Reply #2 on: April 03, 2013, 11:49:05 PM » on this thread. I added here anyway.
Its the third position from the initial post (the initial its the first).
I also attached a bottom side pictures. I dont know if you want to see something in particular. Just let me know.
This answer took a while because I made some small improves of the board, and i did a new one. New board, new components, new microcontroler, same problem.
I had the theory that It colud be something with the micro, but the new board has exactly the same problem, the bootloader (Caterina-Leonardo) looks like working because the blink, but USB is not working. Because of that I think I have a design electrical mistake, but..I dont now where :S
