ButtLoad Carrier Board

A quick post between the last beta announcement and (hopefully) the announcement of the next full LUFA release.

A few days ago, a user named “bobosoft” (real name Matt Bommicino) posted a fantastic thread on his own design for a carrier board to house a Butterfly, running my ButtLoad firmware. Matt’s done a bang-up job of it, and kindly gave me permission to repost his photos, shown below, for all to see and admire.

ButtLoad is an older project of mine, which converts a stock Atmel Butterfly board into an AVRStudio-compatible AVRISP clone, using my own firmware. It also has many other neat features, like the output of a rescue clock to repair incorrect clock fuse settings, and the ability to store a complete AVR’s image (FLASH, EEPROM, Fuse and Lockbits) into its non-volatile storage for PC-less programming of multiple boards. You can find out more about my Buttload project on its project page.

Check out Matt’s thread on AVRFreaks here, complete with the above photo and full PCB layout so you can make your own.
