gearmotion, does yours work?
is a real parellel port one in the back of your pc?
well thanks, ill give the top one a try and prey i don't fry my port. and for the resistors do they have to be exact? also can it harm my atmega8 if i connect the wires wrong?
well i have now built 1 and 2 and i have winavr so i might take a look at the other one from the company 'kanda'. also, great post gearmotion! this will help tonnes of people
wow thanks man, thats a really easy and clear blog to understand!
ahhh im still scared to put my chip into the socket and try but i will try today as its only $6 next time im getting the 8kb version as its only $3. but yea i hope to give it a try today. just one question. does it matter if i made the casing of the parallel port gnd? is there something else connected to it? im just very busy right now. ive got 5 assignments due next week (two of them monday) and i have yet to start them
The case/shell does not have to be grounded.
ok thanks gearmotion ill try to fit it in somewhere today.EDIT: nope didnt work i guess i might spend the $30 on the parallel one from sparkfun
im running xp, its a port in the back of my pc that this connector fits into snugly and how do i check my bios settings?
