Adding ICSP header to your Arduino/AVR board using ISP10PIN microcontroller

Leave a Comment / AVR ATmega Projects, Microcontroller Programmer Projects / Ibrar Ayyub

So you may have been playing with Arduino’s, or rather, Hackduino’s. If you made your own Hackduino or similar project, you may be wondering how to add the ICSP header. Basically, using the ICSP header will allow you to use an external programmer to ‘upload’ software to your MCU (microcontroller unit). This will work for
