Beginner’s Microcontroller Programming-IV: Absolute minimalistic approach to the modified SIProg

Ok, before I startered this project, I tried to construct the USBasp and USBtiny, and was not successful with bread board. I am planning to make a better version of the USBasp in PCB, but at the moment I tried to make a really small SI Prog. It will be so small that the entire veroboard will fit into a standard serial port connector casing. I just bought one from Patuatuli:
To fit the veroboard into the small casing, you can maximum fit a 6×6 hole veroboard piece into it, by properly polishing the sides, the central piece could be two hole longer. As the header is inserted into the box, the backside of the header blocks the first row. With only five holes, I thought, at first it would be impossible to fit my circuit (http://sajiduc.blogspot.com/2008/04/beginners-microcontroller-programming.html) here.
ভিস্তা বাণিজ্যিক সংস্করণ পেলাম বিনা মূল্যে

IEEE এর সদস্য হওয়াতে আমি ভিস্তা বাণিজ্যিক সংস্করণ পেলাম বিনা মূল্যে। মাইক্রোসফট এখন শিক্ষার্থীদের বিনামূল্যে বিভিন্ন সফটওয়্যার দিচ্ছে। তারউ ধারাবাহিকতায় আমি IEEE এর শিক্ষানবিশ সদস্য হওয়ায় ভিস্তা বাণিজ্যিক সংস্করণ পেলাম। আসল সফটওয়্যার ব্যবহারের অনুভূতিই আলাদা।

External Crystals and Ponyprog
Posted by Sajid Muhaimin Choudhury in Microcontroller, avr, tips on November 2nd, 2008 , 18 Kartrik 1415
We are now working on a project that requires external crystal. I borrowed a microcontroller from my friend today. We were using external crystal for our project, and I thought that was no big deal. I brought the microcontroller home, and tried to program it. Ponyprog said it is an unknown device. I was quite anguished and thought that it the microcontroller was fried. Suddenly just for curisity, I plugged in a 12MHz crystal. And wow, ponyprog started working again!
Moral (!!!!) : When you have programmed fusebits for external crystals, you MUST use one to program the microcontroller.
