USBasp - USB programmer for Atmel AVR controllers
USBasp is a USB in-circuit programmer for Atmel AVR controllers. It simply consists of an ATMega88 or
an ATMega8 and a couple of passive components. The programmer uses a firmware-only USB driver,
no special USB controller is needed.
Features
• Works under multiple platforms. Linux, Mac OS X and Windows are tested.
• No special controllers or smd components are needed.
• Programming speed is up to 5kBytes/sec.
• SCK option to support targets with low clock speed (< 1,5MHz).
• Planned: serial interface to target (e.g. for debugging).
