what is the maximum frequency crystal oscillator we can connect to ATMEGA 32 mcu.

when i connect 4 Mhz crystal it's working .

when i connect 8  Mhz crystal it's working but not in proper way.

when i connect 16 Mhz crystal it's not working and when i connect it for code transfer it fail so what i do please help me

What does the datasheet tell you?

Top Tips:

  1. How to properly post source code - see: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment... - also how to properly include images/pictures
  2. "Garbage" characters on a serial terminal are (almost?) invariably due to wrong baud rate - see: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/serial-communication
  3. Wrong baud rate is usually due to not running at the speed you thought; check by blinking a LED to see if you get the speed you expected
  4. Difference between a crystal, and a crystal oscillator: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment...

What  is the MCU supply voltage (at the MCU's power pins)?

An oscillator is not a crystal. Which are you using? You need to learn the difference or one day you will set your fuses wrongly.

At 5V a mega32 should run with a 16MHz crystal.

 

What value capacitors have you connected to the crystal?

 

What are your fuses set to?

Really??

I'd be tempted to give the crystal a bit longer to start up. Unless I'm in a hurry I always use the slowest settings...

Your picture shows CKOPT set to No.
.
It MUST be enabled for crystals of 8MHz and above or the drive is not strong enough for it to resonate.

I had never programmed ckopt unless I need to drive other device with the same clock source or noisy environment.
.

I guess the OP is working with UART or time critical.
How can he be sure it's working or working but not in the proper way?

Aha, I wonder if the OP means that his programming fails? In which case, are we looking at an ISP speed issue?

You mean your usbtiny? Of course you can.
Set your isp clock 1/4 of your mcu clock.
