The AVR microcontrollers can be programmed from a host computer (PC) via a suitable programming interface. More than 10 different types of programming interfaces are popular with AVR users worldwide, and another 10-20 not so popular ones are probably in existance. The different programming interfaces differ on a number of points, like: Whether they connect to the PC's serial- parallel- or USB-port Which selection of AVR microcontrollers they can be used for Which download PC-programs they can be used with At Odense University College of Engineering (OUC/IOT), we have chosen to design an AVR programmer which is compatible to the STK-200. The STK-200 is one of the most popular AVR programmers beeing used by the international AVR community, due to its: Simplicity and ease of use Low cost Compactness Compatibility to most AVR download software Due to the low-cost design of our programmer, Odense University College of Engineering is able to offer a free programming interface to any of our students who have an educational interest in AVR programmers, either through an official course/project, or through a private project.

More than 10 different types of programming interfaces are popular with AVR users worldwide, and another 10-20 not so popular ones are probably in existance.

At Odense University College of Engineering (OUC/IOT), we have chosen to design an AVR programmer which is compatible to the STK-200. The STK-200 is one of the most popular AVR programmers beeing used by the international AVR community, due to its:

Simplicity and ease of use
Low cost
Compactness
Compatibility to most AVR download software

Due to the low-cost design of our programmer, Odense University College of Engineering is able to offer a free programming interface to any of our students who have an educational interest in AVR programmers, either through an official course/project, or through a private project. As long as you learn something about programming microcontrollers, we are happy to give you this piece of equipment.
