Using Arduino as an ISP: Burning Bootloaders onto AVR Microcontrollers

Development Board – Kits Projects / Ibrar Ayyub

Introduction At times, incorporating AVR microcontrollers into electronic projects becomes necessary. However, beginners might encounter challenges in comprehending the process of uploading or burning code onto an AVR IC. Burning bootloaders onto AVR microcontrollers can be facilitated with the assistance of an Arduino board, particularly when alternative programming hardware is unavailable. Additionally, utilizing Arduino as […]

TROJANS CAN LURK INSIDE AVR BOOTLOADERS

Arduino News / Muhammad Bilal

If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years, it’s that if it’s got a silicon chip inside, it could be carrying a virus. Research by one group focused on hiding a trojan inside an AVR Arduino bootloader, proving even our little hobbyist microcontrollers aren’t safe. The specific aim of the research was to hide a

Burning the Bootloader on ATMega328 using Arduino UNO as ISP

Interfacing(USB – RS232 – I2c -ISP) Projects, Projects / Ibrar Ayyub

I had one remote controlled project that needed an Arduino running 24/7 but I didn’t want to leave my $32 Arduino UNO, so I decided to buy some pieces and created my own Arduino. The most important part was buying the microcontroller. These were my options: ATMega328P-PU with Optiboot ~ $5.50 (Sparkfun) / $5.19 (Digikey)
