problems with programing

Post by westbrookp1 »

I just learned how to program the wave bubble by using the mikefile and uncommenting the tests. The only thing standing in my way is that i come up with the screen that says initialization failed which means that there is a miscommunication between the avr programmer and the atmega. Since I am using a usbtinyisp, I followed all of the steps by changing to usbtiny for device and usb for port in the makefile.and I checked all the solder joints of the atmega which look good. So, I am trying to figure out if I have a faulty atmega or avr programmer.

I also made the mistake of putting the 6 pin bacwards on the pins, causing my 3.3V/200mA LDO regulator to smoke. I have successfully replaced the parts and tested voltages in the previous section and they all check out. So, I am starting to wonder if I blew out the atmega.

If anyone had a similar experience with this please help me out, I would really appreciate it!
