3.c.1. Using Advanced Features of AVR Studio 4

This section provides a brief overview of the programming features of AVR Studio 4 that were not covered in

Section

3.c

. You will not typically need to use these advanced features, but it is good to know about them for the rare occasions

when you will need them. Please see the Atmel’s AVR Studio 4 documentation for more detailed descriptions of these
features.

ISP Frequency

In the ISP window, under the Main tab, the Programming Mode and Target Settings section lets you set the
frequency of the clock used when programming the target device. The higher the ISP frequency, the faster the target
AVR will be programmed, but this frequency must be less than a quarter of the target AVR’s clock frequency. Click
Read to read the frequency from the programmer and click Write to write the selected frequency to the programmer.
It is important to note that the frequencies in the ISP Freq list are

not correct

when you are using the Pololu USB

AVR programmer. See

Section 3.e

for a list of the actual frequencies and more information about selecting the ISP

frequency.
