TOPLED LP M676 2.6.3 Data Flash Memory For USB Mass-storage class demonstration purposes, the STK526 provides an on-chip serial Flash memory (AT45DB642x) connected to the AT90USB82/162 Serial Port Interface (SPI). The data-flash chip select signal is connected to PortC bit 2 of the AT90USB82/162 (See Figure 2-15).
Using the STK526 STK500 Resources Figure 2-16 . Connecting STK526 to the STK500 Board Note: Caution: Do not mount an AVR microcontroller on the STK500 board when STK526 is plugged on STK500. 2.7.1 Supply Voltage from STK500 The AVR supply voltage coming from STK500 (VTG) can also be controlled from AVR Studio®.
AT90USB82/162. This is the easiest and fastest way to reprogram the device directly over the USB interface. The “Flip” PC-side application available for free on Atmel website offers a flexible and user friendly interface to reprogram the application over the USB bus.
