The Bus Pirate is a universal (usb)serial-to-SPI/I2C/JTAG/... interface with on-board +5V and +3.3V power supply, therefore it is a good candidate for an AVR programmer. The patch has been tested with Bus Pirate v1a with firmware 2.1. Unfortunately I don't have the newer Bus Pirate v2 or v3 hardware but am pretty confident it should work as well. For more informations about the Bus Pirate check out Dangerous Prototypes: http://dangerousprototypes.com/category/bus-pirate/ Here's a sample session: ~/src/avrdude-trunk$ ./avrdude -C ./avrdude.conf -p atmega328p \ -P /dev/ttyS0 -c buspirate -b 115200 Detecting BusPirate... Bus Pirate v1a http://dangerousprototypes.com Firmware v2.1 DEVID:0x0447 REVID:0x3003 (A3) BusPirate is now configured for SPI avrdude: AVR device initialized and ready to accept instructions Reading \| ########################################## \| 100% 0.34s avrdude: Device signature = 0x1e950f avrdude: safemode: Fuses OK avrdude done. Thank you. Reading and writing Flash and EEPROM seem to work just fine. The wiring is easy, the only exception bing that BusPirates's CS (Chip Select) pin connects to AVR's RESET. Other than that it's obvious. BusPirate <-> AVR Chip ------------------------ GND <-> GND +5V <-> Vcc CS <-> RESET MOSI <-> MOSI MISO <-> MISO SCL/CLK <-> SCK I hope to see BusPirate supported in the next AVRdude release :-) Michal _______________________________________________________ File Attachments: ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue 06 Oct 2009 12:22:37 PM CEST Name: buspirate.patch Size: 13kB By: mludvig BusPirate support patch <http://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/download.php?file_id=18820> _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?6936> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/ _______________________________________________ avrdude-dev mailing list avrdude-dev@... http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avrdude-dev
