STK200 and STK300 AVR boards

Kanda AVR development and AVR training kits are long established and very popular. Over 50,000 of these AVR boards have been sold, and the package is getting better. They support most AVR microcontrollers and are easier to use than Atmel STK500, and include training material.

STK200 is for 8, 20, 28 and 40-pin AVR microcontrollers and STK300 is for 64-pin TQFP AVR devices. Now they optionally come with AVR JTAG ICE or AVR Dragon.

Unless you have a project in mind that requires lots of I/O pins, we suggest that STK200 is the better choice of AVR board for training.


There are basically 3 hardware choices for AVR programming and debugging available with STK200 and STK300, depending on the target AVR microcontroller and your budget:

• AVRISP:
  USB In system programmer (ISP) with its own software (but linked to AVRStudio when required) for programming all AVR microcontrollers. Debugging is on AVRStudio Simulator.
  
  
  
• AVR JTAGICE:
  In Circuit Emulator using JTAG Port, runs from AVRStudio software, with limited device support
  
  
  
• AVR DRAGON:
  ISP and Emulator in one package. It is a bare board, but Kanda supply all leads and adpters required. Runs from AVRStudio and has ISP, JTAG and DebugWire (for emulating smaller AVR devices)
  
  
  

USB AVR ISP, AVR JTAGICE and AVR DRAGON are available separately if you already have a board, see links at bottom of page.



With all STK200 and STK300 AVR starter kits you get.

• ATmel AVR Studio IDE with Assembler, editor and simulator (copyright (c) Atmel Corp)
• Integrated Full unlimited C Compiler
• AVR Application Builder
• AVR Development board with LEDS, memory sockets, UART, LCD interface, ADC and Switches
• Code examples (C and Assembler), schematics and datasheets
• Get Going with AVR and Embedded C books on CD
• AVR Microcontroller
• Choice of AVRISP, JTAGICE or AVR DRAGON

Unlike the STK500, the STK200 and STK300 are really easy to use. They are ideal for AVR training and AVR development. With the AVR JTAG Emulator or AVR Dragon, the STK200 is even better and the cheapest AVR development kit on the market.
