USBtinyISP AVR Programmer Kit v2.0

I ordered the USBtiny ISP AVR Programmer Kit - v2.0 from Adafruit Industries.  I am eventually going to upgrade the firmware of my OpenSprinkler System, so I will be needing a programmer to do the upgrade.  I forget to take pix of the build process, so all I have is a pic of the completed unit.  Tested the unit by plugging it in to the ICSP connector on an Arduino UNO.  I uploaded the Blink program and it worked.  In the Arduino IDE make sure the correct programmer is selected, USBtinyISP, and then select "Upload using Programmer" option.

Ready to use!


I used the programmer to upgrade the firmware of my Opensprinkler unit, and it worked just fine.
