There are quite a few of them around (including some clones?), but they are similar to this one from DF Robot: I think I bought this one from eBay a few years ago, but nonetheless, the different ones around are all based on the same circuit. I wrote my own Arduino Library for the keypad operation, and just wanted to sha...
In the context of a project involving the utilization of an ATmega2560 with a custom bootloader (predicated on the Arduino Mega bootloader using the stk500v2 protocol), it was found that the optimal baud rate for programming was 38400, given the use of an 8MHz crystal. The default configuration of avrdude, when employing the -c stk500v2 programmer switch, does not instigate a pull down of the DTR...
