About AVR Programmer This simple COM PORT based AVR atmega Programmer will allow you to painlessly transfer hex programs to most ATMEL AVR microcontrollers without sacrificing your budget and time. It is more reliable than most other simple AVR programmers available out there and can be built in very short amount of time. AVR programmer consists of in-circuit serial programmer (dongle) and small pcb with a DIP socket where you can fit your microcontroller and have it quickly programmed. You may also use this programmer as a stand alone in-circuit serial programmer that can be used to conveniently program AVR microcontrollers without removing them from the target circuit. Entire AVR programmer has been build with using common parts and fits in the case of the serial connector. The socket pcb has been created to fit a 28-DIP AVR ATmega8 microcontroller, but you can build a socket pcb for any other AVR microcontroller out there. This AVR progra...
CHC5: Open Camera System – Image Sensor Specification Comparison
Why This Matters
The linked page is headlined as a comparison of image sensor specifications for an open camera system, but the available text instead describes a low-cost serial-port AVR microcontroller programmer built from common parts. That DIY tool matters mainly to hobbyists and hardware developers who want a cheap, quick way to flash ATMEL AVR chips, including in-circuit without removing them from a target board. The mismatch means readers looking for camera sensor data won't find it in the text provided.
Key Takeaways
- The article text does not deliver the promised open camera image sensor comparison.
- What is described is a budget serial-port AVR programmer made from common components, housed in a serial connector shell.
- It supports both a DIP socket board (built for a 28-pin ATmega8) and in-circuit serial programming of AVR microcontrollers.
