Programming the Deek Robot

The Deek robot is similar to the Arduino pro mini with a ATmega 328. it has no USB interface. i used the Arduino UNO to program the Deek robot, without removing the micro controller ATmega 328 from the UNO board.

1. Connect the Arduino UNO and upload the program

2. Connect jumpers as follows
Arduino      UNO               –>         pro mini
RESET             –>         GRN
RX                   –>         RXD
TX                   –>         TXD
5V                   –>         VCC
GND               –>         GND

GND             –>           BLK

Arduino      UNO               –>         DEEK_ROBOT
RESET             –>         RESET
TX                   –>         TXD
5V                   –>         VCC
GND               –>         GND

GND               –>         GRD

Now using Arduino UNO as an ISP, from the Tools, Programmer .

and selecting the board as Arduino Pro or Pro mini (5V,16Mhz)w ATmega 328, from the Tools, Board.

Upload the program.

USING FTDI to program;

FTDI                –>         DEEK_ROBOT
RX                   –>         TXD
TX                   –>         RXD
5V                   –>         VCC
GND               –>         GND

Dt                   –>         DTX

Now  use AVR ISP, from the Tools, Programmer .

and selecting the board as Arduino Pro or Pro mini (5V,16Mhz)w ATmega 328, from the Tools, Board.
