AVRDUDE supports two basic programmer types: Atmel's STK500 and the PPI
(parallel port interface). PPI represents a class of simple programmers
where the programming lines are directly connected to the PC parallel

AVRDUDE supports three basic programmer types: Atmel's STK500, appnote
avr910 and the PPI (parallel port interface). PPI represents a class
of simple programmers where the programming lines are directly
connected to the PC parallel port. Several pin configurations exist
for several variations of the PPI programmers, and AVRDUDE can be be
configured to work with them by either specifying the appropriate
programmer on the command line or by creating a new entry in its
configuration file. All that's usually required for a new entry is to
tell AVRDUDE which pins to use for each programming function.
The STK500 and avr910 use the serial port to communicate with the PC
and contains on-board logic to control the programming of the target
device. Several pin configurations exist for several variations of the
PPI programmers, and AVRDUDE can be be configured to work with them by
either specifying the appropriate programmer on the command line or by
creating a new entry in its configuration file. All that's usually
required for a new entry is to tell AVRDUDE which pins to use for each
programming function.
device. The fundamental difference between the two types lies in the
protocol used to control the programmer. The av910 protocol is very
simplistic and can easily be used as the basis for a simple, home made
programer since the firmware is available online. On the other hand,
the STK500 protocol is more robust and complicated and the firmware is
not openly available.
