Hello everyone!
I'm new here and i need some help!
Any help any help would be appreciated!
Recently someone gave to me a pcb board with ATMEGA48 microcontroler and ask me if it is possible to be programmed from
Arduino ISP, this board is old i think because dont have USB jack like arduino boards has, it use MXIB 95001 jack for communication (like router cable) and it has external power jack so i troubleshooting
this is the board i been talking about
Thanks in advance!
I see 6 pins called "J1", that is probably how the chip is programmed.
You can use a programmer like USBasp or an Arduino as ISP to program the chip.
But what would you want to put in the chip ?
The ATmega48 is not one of the Arduino compatible chips.
You can create an entry in boards.txt to make it compable.
You can also write your own code (not-arduino), and use the registers, and upload that with a programmer (USBasp or Arduino as ISP).
first thank you for your help!
i need it to control a rgb led strip
i know that there are to many ways to do that with other modules
but i have the board and i say just for experiment.
The 4kbyte flash is very little memory.
Perhaps you can try to use it without Arduino.
Can you make a development environment with avr-gcc and avrdude ?
The website http://www.avrfreaks.net/ is it about ATmega chips without Arduino. If you log in, you can see the 'Projects' section with many code examples.
