ATMEGA328P-PU ATmega328 with UNO R3 bootloader SMD to DIP 28 (2pcs)

The media could not be loaded.  I originally only programmed attiny microprocessors. I was inspired 'Make: AVR Programming' by Elliot Williams to give the atmega328p a try. After enough research I found I could program the atmega from the SparkFun AVR Programmer that I already had using the Arduino IDE. I built an SPI programming board specifically to program the atmega. My first project was to generate scary audio sounds stored on an SD card for a halloween prop. The chip worked great. The included sockets are a nice bonus.If you search instructables for cscientific, you should find one for building the programming board and one for building the prototype including source code for programming the atmega.

For some unknown reason, one of my Arduino boards quit working. Fortunately, the microprocessor is in a socket. This is the exact chip that is used in the Arduino Uno. Quick fix! And since there were two in the package, I now have a spare in case this happens again. :-)

The price is good, parts are good. I’m not sure about boot loader. I use my IDE boot. I bought 2sets, all good.

I assume this product works perfectly. I had a bad arduino Uno board and thought a chip was to blame, but it's something else.

Price is outrageous.

They're exactly what they say to be and appear to be genuine. If you're building your own PCB prototypes these socketed versions save so much time.

Holders had broken pins. Great atmega. Will buy again. Always have had issues with chips with pre loaded bootloader. These were flawless.
