Hi all,
Recently, I decided to design my first PCB using Atmega328p-AU, I knew it would be challenging but I am enjoying the learning journey.
As a reference, I used Arduino Nano schematics to mimic the same set up, however, as I tried to use my Arduino UNO as ISP to burn a bootloader to a Atmega328p-AU, it unfortuantely throws an error regarding the signature, "Invalid device signature".
I read the numerous post in the forum regarding this, throubleshooted the wires to ensure its correctly set up, also checked that the options selected in Arduino IDE matches the chip i am using.
I suspect has something to do with my oscillator ( i ordered an oscilloscope, waiting for its arrival), I am not sure if the oscillator i chose is causing the issue: https://datasheet.lcsc.com/szlcsc/1912111436_Yangxing-Tech-X503216MSD4SC_C70680.pdf but any help or debugging suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
My connections are essentially following the ones in Arduino page with a slight variation on the way power is delivered :
- MOSI:11
- MISO:12
- SCK: 13
- 5V and GND are independently power source (to ensure there is enough power)

Below is the logs when I am trying to burn a bootloader:

Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.
avrdude done. Thank you.
