Many excellent ISP (In System Programming) designs exist for 8 bit AVR microcontrollers. However, most require a pre-programmed microcontroller, or the “Chicken or Egg” problem: you can’t program microcontrollers unless you have one already programmed. Parallel Port or Serial Port solutions have existed, but many modern computers no longer have these ports. The FTDI USB-to-serail
