    I happen to have quite a few mis-fused AVRs in my “I-should-really-get-an-HV-programmer” box but alas, that has not happened yet. Maybe now?

  17. werejag says:

    would be nice to have

  18. Chirag says:

    Hoping to get it this time.

  19. lincomatic says:

    I could really use one.

  20. Cody says:

    This is a pretty cool project

    Just get an ATMEL Dragon for around $49 USD. Why people futz around with stuff like this amazes me. ATMEL did the right thing and uncrippled the Dragon (fight against the Marketing Goons). It is a go-to programmer/debugger with full control, JTAG, ISP, HVSP. Mine works great, years on end. Just use common sense when connecting it, and yes, you may need to buy a bit of extra parts to populate the headers and sockets (few bucks). RTFM…
