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. carl -------------------------------------------------------- Henry Carl Ott N2RVQ hcarlott@gmail.com > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
