My order of two Arduino Nano-compatible v3.0 from eBay (shipped from China) just arrived. Also bought the
USBASP USBISP AVR Programmer from eBay (about $3.0, from China too, see the picture on the left).
The good thing about this USBISP AVR programmer, besides the unbelievable price, I was told that it is also compatible with avrdude, even Atmel AVR Studio (never tried it, thought)
But when I tried to program it with avr-dude, it always failed with various errors, such as:
avrdude: ser_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer
or:
...
Using Port : /dev/ttyUSB2
Using Programmer : avrisp
Overriding Baud Rate : 57600
avrdude: ser_recv(): programmer is not responding
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
...
I tried "-c arduino" without setting the baud-rate, I also tried different programmer type (stk500v2, etc.), nothing worked. Turned out, the parameters combination I used was wrong.
In this case, the programmer should be "
arduino" but the baudrate must be set to something (in this case,
57600).
The following is the correct one:
bash-4.2$ avrdude -c arduino -b 57600 -P /dev/ttyUSB2 -p atmega328p -vv -U flash:w:blink.hex
