hex code via ISP programming

I am using my AVR Dragon to program the Arduino I built. In AVR Studio I have on my ATmega168 0x1E 0x94 0x06 (8.0 MHz Oscillator Calibration byte 0x8C) @ 3.3 volts. I have my Arduino board powered by a battery pack 3xAAA and then an LM2937 3.3Volts.
I programmed the ATmegaBOOT_168_diecimila.hex, And I compared the flash with a bought Arduino and it has a voltage of 5.0 volts | Sure I can always change or re-write my bootloader and I can program the AVR directly in a variety of ways with the STK-500 and AVR Dragon It should be noted that you have to modify your dragon yourself ( 1x40 zif, 3 @ 2-row-20 male headers, and the headers should be 1@20, 1@10, 2@3, 1@5. ***So correspondingly you have a 40,20, 2@6,10***) Solder the headers in and solder the 40 pin zif in, their should be no electrical connection between the small headers - that get the signal from the dragon - and the 40 pin header for the zif, here is where you use female jumpers to Vcc, GND and programming JTAG, ISP, or HV_PROG.

MAX232

I am making a max232 serial circuit for my homemade Arduino. This circuit will allow the Arduino software to 'talk' with my AVR. My Arduino uses an ATMEGA168 3.3V @ 16.0MHz I can program the bootloader via 6-pin ISP. So far I have controlled servos and LCD's.
My Atmel Dream sound 3703 Digital Signal processor (3-DSP's, stereo 10-band graphic eq., delay, echo, reverb) I have the module connected to an M-Audio USB Fast Track Pro for superb audio music, speech, movies.

dream sound

I am currently listening to my dream sound through rhapsody
The bass and the highs are just incredible. It's a lot more than just a audio eq.
but total audio control from audio input gain, filtering, equalization, delays, output boost.
Dub Side of the Moon by Easy Star All-Stars. Just wonderful enhanced audio sound.

Dream Sound Synthesis

My latest project being a audio / video digital signal processor.
watch the progress here I will be using a three DSP and 24-bit audio router on-chip, called the Atmel ATSAM3703 high performance low-cost effect processor. MIDI configurable, typical applications: effect processing (reverb, echo, chorus, etc.), MP3 decoding, MP3 player, filtering, sampling rate conversion. professional audio, consumer electronic, applications.

AVR Dragon

I put some pictures of my Dragon on my home site. http://users.adelphia.net/~quispqix/
And I show how I followed the directions on the AVR Studio 4 users guide to do the necessary
hacks to the Dragon. I also try to explain SPI or ISP programming. Now if I can only learn C++
If anyone reads my blog please e-mail me = quispqix@gmail.com thx's

voltage modules,... 5.0v 3.3v and 2.5v

Hi, I made some 'voltage modules' to plug into a breadboard. As you can see the input voltage 9volts is the black and red leeds on the left,
the regulated voltage 5.0 3.3 2.5 ~ et al is on the right side now on the breadboard I send the 9volts through the left rails and the right side has the voltage I want . See!

Texas Insturments

The MSP430 platform of ultra-low-power 16-bit RISC mixed-signal processors from TI provides the ultimate solution for battery-powered measurement applications. This is a small RISC processor I wandered upon on the internet. The USB item at right is the programmer / development system partially shown and missing (Shown Left) from the USB fob is the MSP430F2012-based target boards

I like learning about the Microcontrollers and This unit has C++ and Online courses Meet the MSP430: An Introduction to the MSP430 Ultra-Low-Power MCU This is pretty niffty!
