mikroProg
™
is a fast USB 2.0 programmer. Smart engineering allows mikroProg
™
to support about 65 AVR® microcontrollers from Atmel® in a single programmer!
Outstanding performance and easy operation are among it's top features.
In order to start using mikroProg
™
and program your microcontroller, you just have to
follow two simple steps:
1. Install the necessary software
- Install USB drivers
- Install AVRFlash software
2. Power up the board, and you are ready to go.
- Plug in the programmer USB cable
- LINK LED should light up.
RESET or I/O?
Before using the programmer, make sure that reset selection
jumpers J6, J7, J8, J9, and J10 are placed into the mRST position for
all sockets.
Why so many LEDs?
Three LEDs indicate specific programmer operation.
Link
LED lights up when USB
link is established with your PC,
Active
LED lights up when the programmer is
active.
Data
is on when data is being transferred between the programmer and
PC software (compiler or AVRFlash).

v7
EasyAVR
™
v7 is equipped with JTAG connector compatible with Atmel® AVR®
JTAGICE mkII external programmer. You can use either the on-board mikroProg
™
programmer or external programmer at the time. Place your programmer cable
onto connector
CN6
, as shown in image.

Reset selection jumpers
J6, J7,
J8, J9,
and
J10
are used to set PC6, PA2, PB7, PB3
or PB5 pin either as RST or I/O pin, respectively. Each of the pins belongs to different
socket. For example, if you want to use PC6 pin (DIP28 socket) as I/O pin place
jumper into the PC6 position. Other jumpers must be in RST position. For DIP40A
and DIP40B sockets, all the reset selection jumpers must be in RST position.
