How to program into AVR w/o Arduino kit

[Lam]

Hi all,

Is it possible using AVRusb Programmable to program into microcontroller without using Arduino kit?
If yes, anyone know how is the process?

Thanks.

What is "AVRusb Programmable" ? Never heard of it before...

If you are referring to the USB AVR programmer USBASP then you may refer to this link:

You must mean program Atmel AVR chips.. use this usbtinyisp :-

It uses avrdude ( win/lin/mac) to program the chip with cli...

There are lots of online vendor selling this locally..

Hi Allen,

This is what I mean by AVR USBASP Programmer. But I'm not using any Arduino's kit, so I think can't help.
Anyway, thx for help.


Hi Stan001,
U get what I mean!!!
Can u suggest to me any website or vendor to buy usbtinyisp and avrdude?
Why I use AVR USBASP Programmer always says "No supported board found! AVRprog version 1.40"?

By the way Stan001,

I'm using Atmega32 microcontroller. Is it avrdude support it?

USBasp should be no problem to program the supported microcontroller without Arduino. Just make sure the connection is correct.
Except the AVRdude, you can also try others programmer software like Extreme Burner. It is quite easy to use compare to AVRdude. http://extremeelectronics.co.in/avr-tutorials/gui-software-for-usbasp-based-usb-avr-programmers/

Hi hyng,

Thx for reply. I've checked circuit connection and no problem with it.
I'll try the link u suggested to me.

I wish anyone who faced this problem before can reply or PM me.
Thanks first.

I am not good in arduino, but learning. Curious to know. How is the connection since you are programming the AVR without arduino board. Do you have the supporting components? It will be good if you share a photo of the setup with us.

Hi robosang,

I'm follow Atmega32 data sheet, make a simple circuit for free running LEDs. I used some components such as capacitors and V regulator as power circuit, RESET circuit, external 8MHz crystal and LEDs.

Finally, I'm can program into my chip and done the free running LEDs! Special credit to hyng!

Thank so much to u all!

u have successfully program it? Congrats!! Can you share how have you solved the problem?
