ZeptoProg II AVRISP mkII compatible AVR Programmer and Multitool

Updated: Apr 16, 2012

Description

The ZeptoProg II™ is an AVRISP mkII compatible USB AVR programmer that supports chips with the ISP, PDI, or TPI programming interfaces, which includes most megaAVR®, tinyAVR®, and XMEGA™ series devices. It supports high-speed in-system programming of the AVR flash, EEPROM, fuses, lock bits, and more using AVR Studio 4.19, 5.x, or AVRDUDE. Target boards operating at 2V to 5.5V are supported. A jumper can be installed to provide 5V through a polyfuse to the target board. Additionally, a mutitool mode implements a simple 4-channel logic analyzer, GPIO, PWM, frequency output, frequency measurement, a SPI interface, and configuration, all accessible using the ZeptoProg II Java application or the command line using a terminal emulator. Finally, the USB to serial bridge can be used to connect the target to a computer over USB (virtual COM port) at up to 2Mbps.

Features:

● Compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7 and Linux, with Mac support in progress.
● Uses the AVRISP mkII clone and LUFA library by Dean Camera (http://www.lufa-lib.org).

Includes one 30cm (~1ft) 6-pin programming
cable and four 30cm 1-pin cables.
