DIY KIT 17- DIY ZIF Arduino programmer

The kit that we are going to work on this article is also a DIY Arduino. It comes with a zero insertion force (ZIF) IC socket. You can simply insert an Arduino chip and program it. The board has a header to connect an FTDI basic module that can be used to program the Arduino chip.

I received these components from my supplier. It has everything to build the ZIF Arduino programmer.

Step 1: Solder all the resistors first. There are 3 resistors.

Step 2: Solder the 2pcs of 22pF ceramic capacitors.

 

Step 3: Solder the 16Mhz crystal oscillator

 

Step 4: Solder all the 104 ceramic capacitors.

 

Step 5: Solder the reset switch

 

Step 6: Solder all the given 3mm LEDs

 

Step 7: Solder the 6 pin male header for FTDI

 

Step 8: Solder all the male headers. These male headers give access to analog and digital ports of Arduino chip. And the J4 header is for connecting FTDI basic module.

 

Step 9- Solder the 6 pin ICSP header

 

Step 10- Solder the female USB type-B socket

 

Step 11- Solder ZIF socket and insert ATmega328P

It is just another ‘build your own Arduino’ project. BuildCircuit has worked on similar projects before. The most popular project is a DIY Arduino kit. The DIY Arduino looks similar to the real Arduino boards and uses an FTDI basic programmer to program the chips.
