Pocket AVR Programmer

Description: This new version uses an SMD 5x2 header. This is a simple to use USB AVR programmer. It is low cost, easy to use, works great with AVRDude, and is tested extensively on a Windows desktop. Based on Dick Streefland's USBtiny and Limor Fried's USBtinyISP. This is a low-cost programmer designed for those on a tight budget. 

This programmer works really well for ATmega168 and ATmega328 and should work with all the AVR micros supported by AVRDUDE.

This board is buffered and power protected so that you can do some really evil things to the programmer without killing it. It is fast! One of the greatest features of this board is the ability to power the target (up to 500mA) from the programmer.

Note: This product is a collaboration with Limor Fried. A portion of each sales goes back to them for product support and continued development.

Note: The drivers link has been updated below to be Windows 7 compatible.
