2. ESAT-ISP ESAT-ISP Features Program over 94 AVR8 bit RISC architecture devices. Works under multiple platforms. Linux, Mac OS X and Windows are tested. No special controllers or smd components are needed. Programming speed is up to 5kBytes/sec. SCK option to support targets with low clock speed (< 1,5MHz). Easily configurable GUI software available online.

3. ESAT- ISP as a Physical Computing Platform Physical computing is a creative framework for understanding human beings' (analog world) relationship to the digital world. When we learn about Physical Computing, we learn about the sensors that do this, and about very simple computers, called microcontrollers. Microcontrollers read sensors and convert their output into digital data. Finally, we learn how microcontrollers communicate with other computers. Light Sensor Micro-phone

4. Arduino is a tool for making computers that can sense and control more of the physical world than your desktop computer. It's an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple microcontroller board, and a development environment for writing software for the board. Arduino is a Open source Physical/Embedded Computing Platform .. Arduino simplifies the process of working with microcontrollers, and it offers some advantage for teachers, students, and interested amateurs over other systems. Compatibility of ESAT – ISP with Arduino development system can be used to develop application using Arduino Platform.

10. Installing ESAT - ISP 7. Hardware is now Installed and ready to use. 8. Now the hardware is installed and it will show as USBasp under LibUSB-Win32 devices in System /Properties / Device Manager

11. Selection of a MCU ESAT-ISP version 1.0 supports following Atmel AVR 24 PIN DIP devices. ATmega48/88/168 ATmega8

12. ESAT- ISP as a Physical Computing Platform Connecting through ESAT-ISP Run Arduino.exe Select an Example to run on the board. Go to Tools/Boards and select ESATisp. Click on upload button to program the board.

13. To correctly program the board make sure to erase the board before each upload operation using Khazma programmer. (Download Khazma Programmer from here) or Copy it from CD:SAT-ISPoolsrogrammer Select your device. Click on erase. 6. If you get an error make sure you are using correct jumper settings on ESAT-ISP board (See Jumper settings section). ESAT- ISP as a Physical Computing Platform Connecting through ESAT-ISP

14. ESAT- ISP as a Physical Computing Platform Working on Arduino through ESAT-ISP The open-source Arduino environment makes it easy to write code and upload it to the i/o board. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment is written in Java and based on Processing, avr-gcc, and other open source software.(Click Here) Or Copy Arduino Directory directly from the CD :SAT-ISPoolsrduino 3. Go to CD:SAT-ISPToolsrduinorduino-0021ardwarerduino and create open file boards.txt. Add following lines at the end of the file boards.txt ESATisp.name=ESATisp ESATisp.upload.protocol=usbasp ESATisp.upload.maximum_size=7168 ESATisp.upload.speed=19200 ESATisp.build.mcu=atmega8 ESATisp.build.f_cpu=16000000L ESATisp.build.core=arduino

15. ESAT- ISP as an ISP Programmer Connecting through ESAT-ISP ESAT-ISP is a fully fledged USB in-circuit programmer for Atmel AVR controllers. The 6 pin ISP header provided on the board is compatible with general STK500 6 pin ISP header. Over 94 Devices ofAtmel AVR 8 bit Architecture can be programmed through External ISP connector available on ESAT-ISP. (See jumper Settings page for connecting programmer externally) 6 PIN ISP header on STK 500

16. ESAT- ISP as a Physical Computing Platform How to program external devices ? Extend a connector compatible to 6 PIN ISP header Connect your hardware to 6 PIN ISP header of ESAT- ISP board. If the target MCU on your hardware is self powered .(connect the JMP 1 to Power) If the target MCU is not self powered ,DC socket jack available on ESAT-ISP can be used to provide the power externally. ESAT can be as a development board for 28 PIN devices like ATmega8/48/88/128 Place the MCU in the 28 PIN ZIF socket provided on board. The target MCU can be powered through USB in case power supply is not available.(Connect JMP1 to USB) 6. Use Khazma Programmer or any software compatible with USBasp application to program he device. For further details on USBasp application logon to http://www.fischl.de/usbasp/

17. ESAT-ISP Jumper Settings Jumper Settings JMP1 - Target MCU Power Source Selection USB : This mode is used to power the target MCU External/On board from USB. Power: This mode is used to power the target MCU External/On board from external DC supply.(recommended) CAUTION : When using JMP1 –USB to power the target make sure the current consumption of circuit does not exceed 500 ma. JMP2 - Programming frequency selection SCK Hi/Low Connected (SCK Low):Generally used for programming MCU having factory set fuses. (recommended) Disconnected(SCK HI ):Fast programming of Target MCU. JMP3 - Self Programming(Do not Connect) Connected : Used for upgrading the software of ESAT-ISP. Disconnected : (Recommended)
