Hi,
this is a wonderful tool.
Using AVRFuses.exe version 0.5.0.0 for .NET
I recognized that no ATmega328p support is available,
although avrdude is prepared for this chip.
Because the m328p is now very popular,
it would help many people if could include support for
this.
Kind regards
Ekkehard

Thanks a lot for the program, helped me mess with fuses on some AVR’s it’s way easier than messing with avrdude. Also thanks for outputting the command line that is very useful to see what is happening.

And another request (don’t you just love it…). Would it be possible to specify where the avrdude.conf file is located ?

Very useful program and thanks for putting in the effort.

Jason:

Could you modify the Fuses window so that it scrolls horizontally as well as vertically? I’d like to be able to read all of the information off the right-hand side of the window.

Thanks.

Well, AVRFuses did work with AVRMacPack for me, just that you have to set the right path for avrdude which is a hidden file.
I went to the applications folder, where shortcut to AVRMacPack manual was located and right clicked it to show the original file. Avrdude was lying someone there.

Hi Jason,

Thanks for this little program, I find it really useful! I have found it while looking for replacement for FUSE calculator, when my favourite web was down:

http://www.engbedded.com/cgi-bin/fc.cgi/

Development suggestion: I see you have little output window down at the bottom. It would be really nice if you can display the actual avrdude command executed. This would enhance value of this program in two ways – 1) to get an idea what command is issued 2) educate people how to use avrdude command properly (as sometimes it’s little tricky)

I have also discovered one issue: When selecting a slower baud rate i.e. 4800 in the Preferences, all operations always fails. When using command line (-B 4800) it works fine.

Hello,

Does AVRFuses work with AVRMacPack?
I have installed AVRMacPack on my MacBook and entered the installation location for AVRMacPack as the “Path to avrdude”.
The following output message appears:

Loading avrdude config …
SUCCESS
FAILED

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,

cool program. but I have a problem with the fuses of an atmega644. I can read the fuses and write the exact same fuses back. But if i change something (for example deactivaiong JTAG) I get the following error:
avrdude: verification error, first mismatch at byte 0×000
0xd9=!0×99
avrdude: verification error; content mismatch
FAILED

any idea?

Absolutely astounding, AVRfuses was suggested to me at exactly the right moment: I wanted to make an ATmega8 run off an external crystal and I was quite worried about getting the fuses right, as I have already locked myself out of a tiny2313 in the past by accidentally disabling /RESET. This made it a breeze.
Thank you very much!
