Standalone Arduino Programmer
Overview
The standalone Arduino Programmer can programme many atmel chip in stand alone mode which means it does not need a computer to operate. This is very useful for automating the programming of large number of chips.
Features
- Onboard Micro SD card.
- 3 operation LED (work / ok / error).
- 3 operation button.
- 6 pin SPI connection to target.
- Additional GPIO pins available for expansion.
- Provision for use of a small LCD screen.

- Locate the produced hex file.
- Copy it to the SD card.
- Rename the file as 'firmware'hex'.
- Insert the SD card in the programmer.
Production Usage
