Hello,

Is there anyone out there using the ATMEGA8515 with a serial programmer? Can anyone test it with Avrdude?

I tried using the lastest AVRDUDE.CONF and it reports a recognized 'a' error in 'avrdude.conf':1817.

I tried creating a new part and it won't verify.

My tools all worked okay with the AT90S8515.

Any help would be appreciated, the hardware guy used my deadline :( so now I'm overdue.

Jeff

This is an interesting response to "dump flash 0 0xbf" command.

AVRDUDE: AVR device initialized and ready to accept instructions
AVRDUDE: Device signature = 0x1e9301
avrdude> dump flash 0 0xbf
>>> dump flash 0 0xbf

While the first 3f bytes are 0 and should not be. The ones 40-bf seem to be correct.

Any ideas gang?

It's also interesting that the fuse bits all read as 0.

avrdude> read lfuse
>>> read lfuse
0000 00 |. |

avrdude> read hfuse
>>> read hfuse
0000 00 |. |

avrdude> read lock
>>> read lock
0000 00 |. |

avrdude> part
>>> part

signature no 3 0 0 0 0 0x00 0x00

When I use the "send" command to send raw data it doesn't seem to make a difference. However, the command "read signature" returns the correct bytes.
