This really helped me. Just like you I also bought the chips with the "preloaded" bootloader. After browsing the web for hours I finally found your video and now my chip is working as expected. I have liked the video and subscribed. Thanks a lot!

[@hermanhermitz9101]

Thanks for the simple explanation. Initially I consistently had the incorrect signature errors and thought the IC was faulty, but changing the crystal from 16MHz to 8MHz fixes it.

[@TheeSlickShady_Dave_K]

first vid I've seen from ZooRated instant SUBSCRIBE well done and thanks man

[@kennethd.bryant9279]

I think this is the first tutorial that treats the view as a adult! usually get out of focus projects, backs of hairy hands, dirty finger nails and boring descriptions of what +5Volts and ground mean.

[@yoknickmick55]

Dont forget to select the programmer as "Arduino as ISP" from Tools>Programmer before burning

[@SteiniMax]

Thanks, that solved my problem.

[@SajolKumarDas]

+Burak ÇALIŞKAN thank you very much. it was no on the video

[@pbj7654]

thanks

[@deanroweldeleon2268]

thank you ver much for this

[@perfectpete1]

Thanks,. Wish I read that at 9pm instead of 3am.

[@JoeBowler300]

Very good video! Clear step by step procedure, worked for me thanks! Except for that one part about switching over to ArduinoISP sketch before you click "Burn Bootloader" that many people have already mentioned. Kind of a pain to get that chip in and out of the socket. You should put the original chip in it's own chip socket and piggy back it onto the arduino's board socket. Removal is a thousand times easier and keeps you from bending the pins from insertion and removal. Works AWESOME!!!

[@bertollini]

Dude! This saved the day! Thanks for the upload!

[@nordiatrygghetvattenfelsbr3549]

Exactly what we need for our new Vattenfelsbrytare! Thanks

[@benwad21]

Thanks to your friend for this tutorial. I did everything as you did and succeeded. Ps- I had to change the quartz because at first it was impossible to burn the boot. I just had 2 oscillators I changed and it went without a problem.

[@odonovanmaol8689]

Thanks a million This was just what I needed to get my chips working

[@garyng3382]

helpful lesson, thanks! i'll modify and try my non-bootloader ATMEGA32U4-AU

[@nemeenshah7101]

Thank you a lot sir u helped me a lot mine chip was not having boot loader on it and I was searching on internet like hell and don't get any help 😢 Your cider helped me a lot Thanks😁😊

[@nishantnirala3706]

thanks man ! , this is the best video tutorial for bootloader.

[@ovi_4]

Except that he has forgotten to mention that u need to select Arduino as ISP from tools/programmer first otherwise it wont work

[@markgreco1962]

You did a great job thank you for the instruction I built it and followed long as you did it on KZbin

[@ZooRatedProductions]

Mark Greco Thank you very much.

[@melwinalm]

Thanks dude. You saved me.

[@DAILYTECHNEED]

worked for me. But I've a question. when i program an atmega by an arduino uno that atmel reset pin doesn't resets the chip on the breadboard. I've an arduino and have another atmega on breadboard.

[@delikadir016]

birebir uygulayın %100 çalışıyor. thanks ZooRatedProductions.

[@TheConceptBoy]

Are you able to continue programming the ATmega chip without popping it in the arduino? I have the Uno with a micro version of the processor permanently soldered to the board, I managed to uplaod the bootlaoder, however when upload the blink sketch to blink pin 8 which is the very last pin the left side, it doesn't blink it when LED is connected.

[@deepakcg92]

when i am doing this . i got a error . avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0xff help me please

[@MrRamtonio]

Gracias...tu explicación me ayudó muchísimo.

[@MargaritoMartinezCuervo]

I got it, I changed in Programmer: "Arduino as ISP" and its works!

[@pancapokok4076]

Thanks guys. very good jobs

[@gleglenopeone]

good job that works well and many other methods don't work .even instructions from arduino page didnt work for me .

[@26limer]

Thank you SOO much!

[@KJ7JHN]

Thank you very much!!!

[@sagarelectronicstechnologi2695]

what if my older atmega 328 has dammaged i want to replace a new but when i am trying to upload sketch but it showing me a error kindly solve for me ?

[@thedriver429]

ThX!!! =D :o fellow minecrafter! yay... Btw there is a great tutorial (a bit shaken) out there to show you how to make your own striped version of arduino using the chip, and a few other really cheap components, so this video combined with your tutorial = pure awesomenesss!

[@sajibkarmaker5244]

thankyou bro...for your wounderful vedio....

[@ashrafsarameh2507]

Hi,Nice video.I do have a problem though. I have bought 2 new Atmega328p and burnt Bootloader onto them via ICSP (similar steps you showed, using the Arduino Uno as the programmer). However, now I can only upload sketch to the new MCUs via ISCP and not through the RS-232 port. Where as the other MCUs that were preprogrammed, I can upload sketch through the RS-232 port. Any ideas why?

[@Chuywaka]

I thought I've burnt 5 atmegas before realising my board was bad and corrupted the bootloader. And for some reason Arduino reference pages doesn't load the wiring images at all, so you just fucking saved me, dude ❤❤❤

[@ExStaticBass]

Is there any reason something like the couldn't be used to burn multiple chips at once? I'm not sure what the loading specs are on the output of the Arduino boards like you have there. I have a similar setup so I'm curious.

[@thani9826]

i got this error.... any help? avrdude: Error: Could not find USBtiny device (0x2a03/0x49) Error while burning bootloader.

[@alperbayir1400]

very nice Thank you :D

[@ElenaPonomareva666]

If you have "Yikes! Invalid device signature." error and you have double checked all wires, just remove atmega328 from the breadboard and insert it back. Worked for me.

[@satrah101]

hi can i use Nano V3.0 ATmega328 16M 5V Micro-controller CH340G insteat of uno board to program atmega328p-PU. Thanks in advance

[@ddmdavid1]

is there a way to put the chip on another arduino and install the bootloader????

[@electrifyingelectron9792]

Hi, Is there anyway I can get Arduino bootloader sourcecode? Or any video or blog explains in detail. Thanks

[@25Aditya25]

Good video

[@husamhsuam]

what does this code mean ( w10647Asz113 ) ???? i read it on a pcb board under the ATMEGA328P-PU

[@ravidhoble9163]

avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature. Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check. i got this problem.. what should to do? please tell me..

[@okenkhuman_logicbee]

I added reset button in my circuit... Sir my question is will the chip loss its boot loader if I press the reset button?

[@eimbh]

Good one

[@kulde3pverma160]

Bro....i was also facing the same problem but then i reconnect all component again ( cyrstal) then it work properly......try it again

[@zachbutler2470]

Anyway I can put Leonardo onto the atmega328?

[@haxxy40]

You don't need to connect the ground pins (Pin 8 and Pin 22) to each other, they are internally connected. You just need to connect one of them to the common ground rail

[@alurihariharan5082]

nice saying man!!!!!!!!

I am trying to download code in arduino uno but getting same error every time saying, avrdude: verification error, first mismatch at byte 0x0000 0x0c != 0x62 avrdude: verification error; content mismatch before this board was running perfectly. and now board runs code that was downloaded last. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?

thnx bro.

[@chaitanyatuckley4666]

I want to burn atmega8. Can you tell me how to do it?

[@terryphan7451]

I tried all different video none of these are working for me! So frustrating!!

[@russjost4351]

Nice video but connecting an LED directly from the digital output (D13) to ground could fry that output. You should have had a series current limiting resistor like a 1Kohm.

[@BieAnimation]

thanks !

[@ZooRatedProductions]

You're welcome!

[@IsaacC20]

I think you forgot to note that your Arduino Uno needs to be running the ArduinoISP sketch before you click "Burn Bootloader"

[@erzetic]

+Isaac That's what I was missing.

[@sam35696]

thank's

[@MargaritoMartinezCuervo]

I am burning too my bootloader but it give me this error: COULD NOT FIND USBtiny DEVICE, Error while burning bootloader. What I need to do?...help please.

[@commenterguy7903]

change the programmer to Arduino as ISP

[@balkrishnawagle7205]

its great

[@shahidulhimel1612]

how can i solve this problem. it occured when i select burn bootloader avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature. Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check. Error while burning bootloader.

[@ovi_4]

It all depends of what kind of Atmega 328P u r trying to burn. Is a blank one that has never ever been used before or plugged onto an arduino uno board ??? If this is the case u will need to select arduino uno under tools/board and select the right com port number (for your programmer) from tools/port and select Arduino as ISP from tools/programmer since your programmer is an arduino uno board (if it is the case). then connect the wiring acording to the above video and then press burn bootloader.

[@prashantmadan2106]

I want to burn bootloader in the atmega8 chip but every time find error "efuse " memory type not define for the part atmega8. So what i need to do.

[@ovi_4]

I would use other means such as WIN AVR of plain vanila avrdude or Atmel studio 7 under win 10 and a proper programmer such as an Atmel ICE or a USBTinyISP (by adafruit) or an AVR Programmer version 2.1 (by POLOLU) etc etc.

[@itsr4yd946]

It sais something about an invalid device signature but all connections are right

[@jasimali5777]

i am burning boatloader but it give me following error ,,what to do ? avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature. Error while burning bootloader. Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override this check.

[@ZooRatedProductions]

Make sure you are using the 2 caps and 16MHz crystal. Here is link to the crystal: amzn.to/1Omg8sa Here is the link to the caps: amzn.to/21iXi6n

[@jasimali5777]

yeah ofcourse used same ,,i am sure ,,

[@gouravsingh5746]

same problem

[@beardedsawyer6322]

Mine worked after I removed the capacitors...

[@mirsahib596]

use a 10k ohm resistor from reset pin to 5v

[@JhantusGyan]

after bootloader... when i replace the chip in my uno board, pin 13 is slowly blink. what can I do now?

[@ovi_4]

Now it is time to learn a little arduino programming and try to be creative as in....what project would you like to make??? There are thousands to choose from. Google is your best friend and....who knows, with a little luck u might be able to complete your first project such as a temperature and humidity sensor reading or a clock or a compass or a little FM radio or an led strip for your Christmas tree etc etc...your choice.

[@jeremyviromek]

what is bootloader? what does it do?

[@dungokunyet]

what if i use the 24 crystal instead 16? what happen to the IC?

[@ovi_4]

Then get a pair of scissors and cut 8 MHz out of it so it fits nicely...:))) No, but seriously it should still work just fine. Try it.

[@allenfernando4619]

dude did u figure it out? i have the same issue

[@minhly650]

Hi Buddy.Can I use Uno in order to load bootloader onto Nano in this way ? I've got some issues with this board.I pluged it in then my computer could regconize which its COM port is.But the notification window of Arduino IDE showed me "avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00" when I tried to upload the simplest sketch Blink from the IDE to the board.I know that not having bootloader on the board is one of the ways leading us to this issue.This problem just happened to me recently though it worked fine before.How can I get troubleshooting in this case ? Please give me some advice as soon as you can.Thanks a lot.

[@ZooRatedProductions]

Anh Minh Ly Some of the things I try to do is restart the Arduino IDE. If that doesn't work, try holding the reset button on the Arduino and push upload. Release the button after you hit upload and see if the code takes. Try also using a different COM Port. Finally if all that doesn't work, try to restart your computer and try again. Hope this helps. I am unsure if you can load a bootloader in this manner to a nano. I think as long as you make sure the pins are correct, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

[@raykent3211]

I'm no expert, but I know that at least one person has had a similar problem which he fixed by using a different version of the arduino ide, so that might be worth you checking out.

[@ahmedmerzoug163]

hi i want to ask you something i want To Load Bootloader the atmega328p-pu chip but i don't have the arduino cart so my question is can Bootloader the atmega328p-pu chip with an other way and thank you

[@ZooRatedProductions]

ahmed merzoug I believe the other way of doing this without the arduino board is to add the components so that the chip can talk to the computer. I do not know how to do this, but you can find an arduino board on ebay for 7 dollars. This comes with a atmega 328p-pu chip in it with the bootloader installed. Then you can do it as explained in the video. This is the simplest way of doing it.

[@ahmedmerzoug163]

thanks any way

[@raykent3211]

+ahmed merzoug I think that basically the uno is being used here as a usb to isp convertor. Your chip is programable by isp and you can buy a convertor separately, which may be more convenient for you, but as zoo says, uno's are cheap.

[@raykent3211]

+Ray Kent btw, with a convertor I guess you need to use avrdude differently, or atmel studio (probably easier). I used atmel studio 20 years ago with "raw" chips, nothing to do with arduino as such, but the arduino bootloader is just a bit of user app code as far as the chip is concerned.

[@ajeesyachaudhary4713]

hi, does it need any library? If yes, where can i get it?

[@ovi_4]

Library is only needed when try to create a new code/sketch and there are thousands of different kinds or libraries depending on that kind of hardware you try to put together on your potential project. Google is your best friend

[@dnachanel6603]

Hi! I've tried this method many time with many blank chips and I got allways the same error while burning avrdude: device signature = 0x000000 avrdude: yikes! invalid device signature double check , blah blah, blah... Someone can tell me what's wrong, please?

[@zuzo3356]

+Carra Nen As Burak ÇALIŞKAN said, this was not mentioned on the video. You need to select Tools, Arduino as ISP and then Burn Bootloader. After burning the bootloader don't forget to set the programmer to the normal AVRISP mkII programmer for arduino Uno.

[@carranen]

Thank you man. But since I've posted it, I learn how-to and many more things! Cheers!

[@AdityaSuri007]

My arduino UNO' RX and TX pin do not blink while uploading the code. it shows avrdude:out of sync() error Does it mean that Bootloader is corrupt? will this video help me? Thank you.

[@ZooRatedProductions]

Aditya Suri That could be any of this: A wire is connected to pin0, You have the wrong COM port selected (the IDE does not see your board), Your Arduino drivers are not set properly. If your board was working previously to this error happening, then it is not your bootloader.

[@AdityaSuri007]

I've already checked for the above things but none of them work.

I solve that problem downloading a older version of the Arduino IDE, just lo burn the bootloader. I got 1.0.6 IDE.

[@kuukeldeideidara5944]

Hello! I'm having issue with my arduino uno. It was working OK couple days ago. But now it has problem with uploading. When I try to upload, first it stuck at uploading, after a while it gives quite a long error message starts with Problem uploading board, avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x2c avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding................etc. I tried almost all the tricks and instructions online such as reset button. None of them didn't work. I'm sure that my ports and other options for Arduino UNO are correct. When I connect my arduino to computer I hear the device insertion sound, also yellow(L) and green(ON) lights of the arduino board are on. I reinstalled software. And when I connect arduino it has installed the port automatically which means board and computers' connection is OK. Also when I connect my arduino board to motor driver, my stepper motor is working with the code which I uploaded previously. How can I fix it? Please tell me if there is other way. Thank you!

[@ZooRatedProductions]

+kuukeldei deidara I am thinking this could be if you have anything in digital pins 0 or 1. These are reserved pins for communication and need to be disconnected during programming then plugged back in. If you use pins 0-1 for serial, again, make sure you disconnect these pins while programming. Hope this helps.

[@ashrafsarameh2507]

+ZooRatedProductions does this mean if the Atmega28P chip has Bootloader burnt this method then I won't be able to upload sketch (program) through the Rx and Tx drivers?

[@ZooRatedProductions]

Ashraf Sarameh What I am saying is if you try to upload a new sketch to the chip with anything connected to digital pins 0 and 1, it may interfere with the transfer of information and you get an error. What I do is unplug those pins if I'm using them, then upload sketch, then plug them back in. burning the bootloader is for a brand new chip that is completely blank. Once this bootloader is installed on the chip, it acts like a regular arduino.

[@abhinav3478]
