What is USBasp?
USBasp is an open-source USB programmer for Atmel AVR microcontrollers. It allows users to interface a computer with an AVR microcontroller (such as the popular ATmega series) for programming or debugging purposes. The USBasp is commonly used for tasks like uploading firmware or programming microcontroller chips in embedded systems projects.
To use the USBasp programmer on a Windows machine, you need the correct USBasp driver to enable your computer to communicate with the USBasp hardware via the USB port.
