AVR ATMEGA16 Minimum System Board ATmega32 Development Board + USB ISP USBasp Programmer ISP ATTiny 51 Board and PLCC32 to DIP32 EZ Programmer Adapter Socket
Hi all,
Very very new to all this...
I bought the above with the intentions on flashing a bios file to a PL-CC 32 socket chip. I have spent a good amount of time getting nowhere unfortunately. With all the guides I found and advice I have seen on other peoples forum posts I havent progresed very far.
So far I have only managed to flash the latest firmware to the USBasp - after that I can't get any programs show that they are successfully connected to the USBasp.
I am obviously missing something or doing something wrong but I just can't work out what it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have purposley not put any information about any errors etc... I have had as I have seen other forum posts get a bit confusing as people have had a lot of different opinons on the errors they got.
At this moment in time I am just looking for help on where to go next after flashing the lastest firmware to the USBasp.
This is the equipment I am using...
Thank you all in advance

Hi randompunk,
what type of BIOS memory chip are you attempting to program?
Modern motherboards use serial SPI flash chips, which are typically 8-pin devices. Every 32-pin PLCC memory device I have ever seen uses a parallel programmer not a serial programmer like the USBASP programmer, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist.
The PLCC-32 to DIP-32 converter is designed for parallel programmers that have Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) sockets.
If you need to program a serial programming interface (SPI) memory then the USBASP programmer can do that but you will require an 8-pin socket (or a breadboard) and the AVRDude programming software.
If you need to program an old style PLCC Flash Memory then you will probably need a parallel programmer and associated software. A parallel programmer is considerably more expensive than a serial programmer.
