How do I program my ATmega2560 chip?

Start the Arduino IDE program. Connect just the Arduino UNO and load the File -> Examples -> ArduinoISP sketch. Select the Arduino UNO board under Tools and the default AVRISP mkII as programmer. Select the serial port and finally compile and upload the sketch as you would normally do.

What programmer do I use for Arduino Mega 2560?

Arduino IDE software
Arduino Mega 2560 can be programmed using Arduino IDE software which is an official Arduino software used to program all Arduino boards. This software is used for writing, compiling, and uploading the code into the Arduino board.

What is AVR ISP?

The AVRISP connects to a PC via a serial port and draws power from the target system. The AVRISP allows using either of the “standard” ICSP pinouts, either the 10-pin or 6-pin connector. The AVRISP mkII connects to a PC via USB and draws power from USB.

Is Arduino an MCU?

The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328. It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which six can be used as PWM outputs), six analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.

What is ATmega2560 microcontroller?

The ATmega2560 is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATmega2560 achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed.
