Usbasp Firmware Update using Arduino Uno

Updating USBasp by Arduino Uno R3 as ISP Programmer Requirements 1. Arduino IDE 1.0 ( IDE 1.5.x had problem with ATMEGA8 Series) ? 2. Usbasp and latest firmware here https://www.fischl.de/usbasp/ Drivers installation: 1. USBasp Driver installation and ensure USBasp device works 2. Arduino UNO R3 USB Install Driver, ensure Arduino Board works Preparation: 1. Arduino UNO R3 as ISP Programmer USBasp 1. Install JP2 and Close Jumper 2. Make Connection to Arduino Uno as below: Arduino Uno USBasp 10P Header Pin10-------------------------------------------------------Pin5 RESET Pin11-------------------------------------------------------Pin1 MOSI Pin12-------------------------------------------------------Pin9 MISO Pin13-------------------------------------------------------Pin7 SCK GND-------------------------------------------------------Pin3/8/10 GND VCC-------------------------------------------------------Pin2 VCC Updating Firmware Prompt to directory that avrdude.exe existing then run command as below change your COM number to match your comport that Arduino connected notes: Ensure usbasp.atmega8.2011-05-28.hex put in above directory 1. Run this command to check Connection and Chip avrdude –C ../etc/avrdude.conf –c avrisp –P COM6 –b 19200 –p m8 –v 2. Run This command to flash MPU avrdude –C ../etc/avrdude.conf –c avrisp –P COM6 –b 19200 –p m8 –U flash:w:usbasp.atmega8.2011-05-28.hex 3. Run this command to set fuse bit avrdude –C ../etc/avrdude.conf –c avrisp –P COM6 –b 19200 –p m8 –U hfuse:w:0xC9:m –U lfuse:w:0xEF:m 4. Remove JP2 Jumper. Done updating firmware.
