Device board with an ATmega2560 AVR microcontroller is included.
The STK600 supports the whole range of AVR microcontrollers, from the smallest 6-pin 8-bit tinyAVR up to the large 144-pin 32-bit AVR UC3 devices.
The AVR device is connected to the STK600 using an innovative routing and socketcard sandwich system, which routes the signals from the device to the appropriate hardware.
The system consists of a generic socketcard, on which the AVR device is inserted, and a device specific signal routing card, which routes the signals from the socket pins to the different functions on the STK600 main board dependant on the device.
The system simplifies the hardware setup when switching from one AVR device to another, since all connections from the device to the motherboard is determined by the routingcard, which is a custom board for each device. The routing system is purely passive, i.e. no electronic components are used to route the signals, and hence all I/O pins are directly accessible on the connectors with no altering of the electrical behavior.
With access to all device pins, and several useful hardware functions that can be connected, such as pushbuttons, LEDs, dataflash, etc, the kit provides a complete system to prototype and test new designs.
With the free AVR Studio the user can write and compile firmware in either assembly or C language, and download the code to the target AVR device.
The board also has adjustable voltage supply and adjustable clock to the target AVR device. The VCC level and clock frequency can be adjusted on the fly from AVR Studio, and gives the designer the ability to test the performance at different voltage levels and clock frequencies with just the click of a button.Starter kits
