hi. i have a breadboarded mega168 connected to a sparkfun breakout board ft232rl. everything works great except
i cannot upload a program with the breakout board . I can send and receive serial data though. I press the reset and upload but it just gives me
avr errors. Any ideas??
Do you have the Arduino bootloader on the ATmega168?
yes it works great. I've been burning the bootloaders with the usbtiny isp. ive been programming the chip on the arduino and swapping it over to my home made set up.
Everything works, the serial works as well when i talk to the computer to processing etc... just can't upload a new
program using the ttl serial board from sparkfun. My tx and rx lights ive connected to my serial breakout board
blink for a bit then i get that error on the arduino software.
Is your COM Port speed set to 19200?
