If your device is supported by the JTAGICE MkI then I expect the $40 ICE-Cube will work. I have one of these and when I also had access to a MkII the ICE-Cube drew much less power off my 50 or 100 mA power. http://www.ecrostech.com/AtmelAvr/AvrIceCube/index.htm -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. _______________________________________________ AVR-chat mailing list AVR-chat@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-chat
