You can still drive the xtal-in pin with a clock source

program one of your other microcontrollers to produce a 32kHz clock on a pin and pump it in to the xtal-in

then rewrite your fuses.

Hi All,

Apologies for the following question which is very OT, but there is a
good chance you guys can help.

I am using an ATMega32 and inadvertantly programmed the fuse bits wrong
:-( ... instead of setting
the fuse bits to use a 16 Mhz external crystal as the clock source, I
programmed the chip to use the low frequency
crystal oscillator setting. Of course now, I can not program the device
anymore.

Does anybody know if there is any way (other than getting hold of a
32.768 Khz crystal) that I can recover the device ?

Many thanks for any suggestions,

James

Hi you can use one from old digital clock (or new one)
=)

You can also program via the JTAG pins, you do not need an external clock for that. The AVRDRAGON is quite cheap, which you can use to re-program the fuses.
