Re: [AVR-Chat] ATMega644 to replace an ATMega32A, Need new JTAG?

2011-01-21 by H. Carl Ott

For JTAG (and DW and PDI) on the more current chips a Dragon for about $50
USD is probably the way to go.
 I managed to blow up my first gen. dragon (there were problems), but
supposedly the new ones are far more robust.

 I've been using a real Atmel JTAGICE MKII for a couple of years now. It's
great, but I think it's too expense at $300.
 There are promotions fairly often where you can get a MKII at half price
(from distributors like Avnet). At $150 I think it's worth it. That's what I
paid for mine.
