Hi again.
I have a little question: Is it possible tu use a parallel to USB cable with this circuit? Anybody has tested it? Which software works in this case if the answer to the last question is positive?
Thanks |

| Nope you cannot use USB-parallel converters as they are only for printers and don' handle all the functionality that parallel programmers require. But given that you'd spend more on a USB-parallel converter than a real USB-ISP programmer why wouldn't you just get the latter? |

Thank you for your answer.
I know that an USB programmer is better than any adapter and an old circuit.
I was thinking in the big amount of good solutions to beginners made with a parallel port. For example CNC interfaces trough the parallel port.
See you  |

| Yes, but as I say a USB-parallel costs more than a USB-ISP. So why would you buy a USB-parallel in order to run one of these hopeless, half-baked ISP programmers when you could have an efficient solution for less? |

If only the cost is the problem, an USB to parallel port cable cost to me only $12, and any USB-ISP costs more then this 
The possibility to have again a parallel port in my PC is what I´m looking.
See you |

A USB-to-parallel converter will not work with a par port programming dongle  |

0k !
Now I have a SKT200/300 dongle and i want to make an USB dongle. There are more than one in the internet. Could you please give me a hint to choose the right model? I'm planning doing it by myself. Pros and cons of each model are enough to me
Thanx in advance !! |

Thanks for all good information about the dongle.

although some Forum-members claim that it is not supported in AVR-Studio-4 (the beautiful programming-environment from Atmel): sorry guys, that is not true! Kanda supplies a plug-in for AVR-Studio with the STK200 and it works fine! And comfortable.
Where can I get this plug in, I can't find it. :-/

Cliff. I believe that sometimes noobs here have a problem distinguishing "new topic" from "new reply". You could perhaps join the two threads? |
