Hi there,
I'm got a pre-programmed ATMEGA8 chip from a friend to control my Nixie Clock. I could buy some more and send it to him to program and then pay for the shipping back to me - but to save hassle and $$, can I program another ATMEGA8 from this chip? And if so, how hard would it be to do this? And what would I need?
Or I can have him email it to me, but then how do I dump the code onto the chip? Currently have part of the "Feng3" w/ziff socket assembled and will try to learn with that.
Sorry guy's a complete newbie.
TIA
