Review on ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Waveshare USB AVRISP XPII Programmer: Compatible with AVR ISP mkII and AVR Studio 4/5/6/7, Supports Advanced Versions by Brian Unruh

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works exactly like Atmel AVRISP MKII for STK500 command line programming

Works as an exact replacement for the original) Atmel AvrIsp MKII . I am using this with the Atmel STK500 command line programming tool for production programming of the ATMega bootloader sector. Previously tried the Olimex brand which didn't work (wrong cable pinout if no 10-6 pin adapter is added, probably driver issues) and) This WaveShare dongle not only LOOKS like an AVRISP MKII, it ACTS like one. There are no changes to the cable pinout or the driver at all. I can easily switch the original and back. This is now my AVRISP MKII replacement.

Pros
  • USB 2.0 compatible (full speed, 12Mbps) 3 extra cables for target board USB bus powered, no external power required
Cons
  • Damaged
