Can 89S be programmed using USBasp?

[pranam77]

I am using ProgispV1.65 in conjunction with USBasp which is working fine for AVR's. In the device selection list there is an option to choose 89S52. The ISP pins were connected ok and 4, 8 and 12 Mhz crystals were connected and differently tried. Trying to program/ erase the said device gave a "Chip enable program error" message. Has anyone tried this before or is it possible in anyway?

progispv1.65

Not possible. Usbasp dont support 89S.
89s52 is in the device list is because the Progisp software is designed to handle a number of hardwares which also supports 89S micros (For example stk500)

It's possible, but you need to do some change.

There are two main difference between AVR and 89S.

1. The reset signal is inverted.

2. 89S' flash is not paged.

By the way, there are already some firmwares on the internet make this change to support 89S.

Thanks Kruck. Can you give me some links to the firmware and the deatils regading how to make the changes?

chip enable program error+progisp

I'm using usbasp too with progisp and I have the same problem, trying to program the 89s52 unsuccesfully... I made this test module and is too bad I can't use it :|...

p.s. this is my first post; just wanna say hi to all, great forum I descover here

Will it be possible for the USB handle 89S if the "Reset" logic is inverted by some transistor?

nop, i tried it but failed.

Re: chip enable program error

Thanks "Nandhu015" for the Reply. But as per "Kruck"says, it is possible and some firmwares are available for that conversion. You have tried the First point. There is another (Second) point to be noted.

I was actually expecting a reply from "Kruck" in refernce to his post quoted here. But he has never replied after his first post.

A lot of modifications should be done to program 89S with usbasp. It will become a new project if the modifications are done. More over a new software should be written (PC side) as avr dude does not support 89S

As i have mentioned in my OP, i use ProgISP and that has 89S in the device list and guess it may have a diffrentt firmware or hardware to make it work. Cheers

Nandhu

As i mentioned earlier progisp software can support development boards such as stk500 which is capable of programming 89S chips. For example, Coding the M8 to support stk500 (including the handling of USB) will be harder than writing a new software that supports 89S chips

Check here for the changed firmware for atmega8 which can support 89S series micros.

Ahhhh...that is wonderful "Binu.Ji". I am truely obliged. It was my oldest dream to constuct one which can program both AVR and 89S. I'll construct it, and post here the results. Too there are many friends on EDA waiting for this. Cheers..

Re: Can 89S programmed using USBasp?

Thanks to Binu ji. It is a wonderful thing iam looking for a long time. Shall i have compiled version of drivers?

As "nandhu015" mentioned, do we need to compile the driver and use the same? or the one already installed for USBASP will work?
After i programmed the new firmware, i was able to program AVR's but when 89s was tried i got an error message "Chip Enable program error" .
Did you personally try the said project BINU? or may be i am going wrong somewhere. Can you please guide ..?Cheers

i've programmed at89s52 with usbasp .. for that u have to change the firmware of atmega8 ..

the one provided by fischdle ll not work ..

check this one ..

i advise u to check the connections .. it works with me ..!

With the changed firmware, you can burn AT89s52 through AVRDUDE.

Re: Can 89S programmed using USBasp?

hello every body...i made a isp programmer with parallel port but it gives me error while writing the flash, it is ok when i read the flash memory.error is write error at memory location 00000002 byte wirtten ..i am using at89c51 program on 89s51 ,,,,should i need to change the program or program for both the controller is same here is my asm program ...please help

The main difference between 89C51 and S51 lies in the following points:

Pin function: Pins almost identical changes were, in the AT89S51 in P1.5, P1.6, P1.7 have a second function, that is, the second 3-pin serial ISP function formed programming interface.

Programmability: AT89C51 only supports parallel programming, But AT89S51 supports both parallel programming and ISP programming.
Voltage in the programming area, AT89C51 in addition to normal programming voltage of 5V, another 12v is needed for Vpp. But AT89S51 just need to be 4-5V.

Endurance: AT89C51 flash memory can be programmed upto 1000 times while the AT89S51 can be programmed from 1000-10000 times, so that the learner repeated the beginning of a more favorable programmer, reducing learning costs.

Frequency: AT89C51 limits the operating frequency is 24MHZ, and AT89S51 maximum operating frequency is 33MHZ, (AT89S51 chip in two models, to support the maximum operating frequency of 24MHZ and 33MHZ) in order to have a faster computing speed.

Power Supply: AT89S51 operating voltage range is up to 4-5.5V, while the AT89C51 at the end of the 4.8V and 5.3V.

Anti-jamming more: AT89S51 has integrated watchdog timer (Watchdog Timer), and AT89C51 needs an external watchdog timer circuit, or single-chip software constitute the internal watchdog timer to achieve anti-jamming software.

If you can program C51 you shud be able to program S51 too . Confirm that all the pins are having good contact with the zif socket or you may consider to constuct USBASP which can program 89S as well AVR's. Cheers
