Does anyone know if the above programmer is compatible with windows 8?? I bought some ATMega chips and they weren't the right ones so I was going to buy a programmer to mess around with an program it using AVR studio 6 instead of finding an arduino to use them in.
This device (And the same as the one I have) will work with most of the Atmel AVR micro-controllers, this is detailed here https://www.pololu.com/product/1300
I have used it with many ATMEGA328 variety chips and ATMEGA2560, U16/U32s, ATTINY84/85 etc with no issues. Basically any ATMEL chip that supports the ISP programming interface (Which is pretty much all of the AVR range, I'm not aware of any that don't have this)
If my response is correct / helpful than please mark as such, it helps me get more badges
