I am a newbie .
I have an ATmega168-L 8PU chip (40 pin PDIP) without bootloader. I also have an Arduino Uno rev3 board. But I don’t have an AVR programmer and don’t want to buy one. How do I burn the Arduino bootloader into the chip using the Arduino Uno board as ISP ?
I followed this tutorial — http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoToBreadboard
but I got this result–
avrdude: Expected signature for ATMEGA168 is 1E 94 06
Double check chip, or use -F to override this check.
I know that official Arduino boards use ATmega 168-A chip (Maybe that’s the problem ?). But I didnt know that before buying the chip.
If not Arduino,will I be able to upload C programs on ATmega168-L using Arduino Uno board as ISP ??
Please Help…
