STK504 User Guide

Introduction

STK504 is a top module to the STK500 development board from Atmel

Corporation. It adds support for the 100-pin AVR microcontrollers listed in the

feature list below.

STK504 includes connectors and hardware allowing full utilization of the features

of these devices, while the Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket makes it easy to

use TQFP packages for prototyping.

This user guide is a general getting started guide as well as a complete technical

reference for advanced users.

Included in the kit is a pre-programmed ATmega3290. Insert the device in the

ZIF socket and the demonstration application will start immediately.
