At my home this is not a henn and egg problem, since I have accumulated several AVR programmers. BAD!īut of course, one should be able to reprogram the programmer using another programmer. So I did and I found some threads discussing the same issue and pointing out, that these programmers needed a different software and were not at all compatible with avrdude. This is the point where I usually ask Google. Not as an USBasp with vid=0x16c0 & pid=0x05dc. OK, it would not be the first delivery from China with broken or counterfeit electronics, so I tested the second one…Īt that time I got a bit confused, because the programmer registered as an HID unit on the USB with vid=0x03EB & pid=0xc8b4. However, connecting the first programmer to my PC brought me quickly back to earth – it was not recognized as an USBasp. Unlike other programmers which I purchased before, these come with a sturdy aluminum shell and in happy colors. MK-USBISP-V3.00 programmer in an aluminum shell on eBay.Īfter waiting for one month for the delivery from China the package finally arrived today.
