AVR-Chat

Hello all.

 

I FINALLY got a lead for my programmer. So tonight I start to learn to work
with avrs. I have some some research, and according to the manual, the unit
is an SP-12 Compatible programmer. Is this a fairly common type of
programmer?

 

And one last question, I was going to use "AVR Studio 3.20" but it doesn't
have avr atmega8 listed in the devices. So I am unsure if it will work with
it, can anyone suggest better software? That will work with my s-12
compatible programmer, when I pres read signature it says "Detecting
STK500.. FAILED!" so I'm at a loss.

 

Thanks for the constant help,

Paul.
