Each series of * USB AVR is separated into a separate download stack, which is both AVR-GCC and IAR compatible. * * - <b>Name:</b> Dr. Stefan Salewski's AT90USB1287 Stack (<i>Dr. Stefan Salewski</i>) \n * <b>Cost:</b> Free \n * <b>License:</b> GPL \n * <b>Website:</b> http://www.ssalewski.de/AT90USB_firmware.html.en \n * <b>Description:</b> This is a GPL'd library specifically designed for the AT90USB1287, by Dr. Stefan Salewski, a * German Physicist. It compiles for AVR-GCC and can potentially be modified to work on other USB * AVR models. * * - <b>Name:</b> PJRC Teensy Stack (<i>Paul Stoffregen</i>) \n * <b>Cost:</b> Free \n * <b>License:</b> BSD \n * <b>Website:</b> http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/usb_debug_only.html \n * <b>Description:</b> Not so much a complete stack as a collection of USB enabled demos, this library is specifically * designed for the PJRC Teensy line of USB AVRs, and thus may need to be modified for other USB AVR * chips. These minimal code samples shows the inner workings of the USB controller, without all the * abstraction present in most other USB AVR stacks. * * \section Sec_SoftwareStacks Software AVR Stacks * These are the known alternative USB stacks which can run on regular AVR models, lacking dedicated hardware USB controllers * via a bit-banged (emulated) version of the USB protocol. They are limited in their capabilities due to the cycles required * to be dedicated to managing the USB bus, but offer a cheap way to implement USB functionality into a design. * * - <b>Name:</b> AVR309: Software USB (<i>Atmel</i>) \n * <b>Cost:</b> Free \n * <b>License:</b> None Stated \n * <b>Website:</b> http://www.atmel.com/dyn/Products/app_notes.asp?family_id=607 \n * <b>Description:</b> Atmel's official software USB implementation, an Application Note containing work by Igor Cesko. This * is a minimal assembly-only implementation of software USB, providing HID functionality. Less compile * options than V-USB (see below). * * - <b>Name:</b> V-USB (<i>Objective Development</i>) \n * <b>Cost:</b> Free for some uses, see website for licensing \n * <b>License:</b> Dual GPL2/Custom \n * <b>Website:</b> http://www.obdev.at/products/vusb/index.html \n * <b>Description:</b> Well regarded and complete USB 1.1 software stack for several AVR models, implementing Low Speed HID. * Used in many commercial and non-commercial designs, with user-submitted projects available for viewing * on the company's website. Uses C language code mixed with assembly for time-critical sections. */Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
