I expect I'll be ordering some STK500 JTAG adapters ...

Alas, I'm afraid the old JTAG ICE mkI protocol code might slightly start bit-rotting in the toolchain ... I'm a little sorry for Graham here, but I'd rater recommend using the AVR Dragon instead
Marge has bought from me just adapters to connect a JTAG interface device to an STK500 with an ATmega16 or ATmega32 plugged in. She did not buy the AVR ICE-Cube, which is what I think you're refering to. The adapters will work just fine with the AVR Dragon or any other JTAG interface.
Although I thought that the AVR Dragon spelled the end for the AVR ICE-Cube, I'm still selling quite a few. Atmel continue to support it in AVR Studio, so there is no bit-rot on the Windows side (at least, not yet).
The only thing when using [the AVR Dragon] for students is that you should somehow fnd a housing for it, to avoid shortcuts.
Or, use it with a Dragon Rider 500 instead of the STK500! Graham. _______________________________________________ AVR-chat mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-chat
