Pulling your AVR chip out of the board every time you need to reflash is a pain you don't have to keep doing. This kit plugs into your computer's serial port and programs, erases, and rewrites both program and data memory right there on the circuit — no desoldering, no bench juggling. Uses royalty-free software you grab from the internet, so there's no licence fee hiding in the box. Supports the full AVR 8-bit RISC family from ATtiny12 up through Atmega163. Jiffy box with silk-screened lid, PCB, and every component are included. Solder it once, and it's your in-circuit programmer for the life of the board
