Programming External Microcontrollers

Use the on-board debugger on AVR16EB32 Curiosity Nano to program and debug microcontrollers

on external hardware.

6.4.1

Supported Devices

All external AVR microcontrollers with the UPDI interface can be programmed and debugged with

the on-board debugger with Microchip Studio.

External SAM microcontrollers having a Curiosity Nano Board can be programmed and debugged

with the on-board debugger with Microchip Studio.

AVR16EB32 Curiosity Nano can program and debug external AVR16EB32 microcontrollers with

MPLAB X IDE.

6.4.2

Software Configuration

No software configuration is required to program and debug the same device mounted on the

board.

To program and debug a different microcontroller than the one mounted on the board, configure

Microchip Studio to allow an independent selection of devices and programming interfaces.

1. Navigate to Tools > Options through the menu system at the application top.

2. Select the Tools > Tool settings category in the options window.

3. Set the Hide unsupported devices option to False.

Figure 6-6. Hide Unsupported Devices

Info: Microchip Studio allows any microcontroller and interface to be

selected when the Hide unsupported devices setting is set to False - also

microcontrollers and interfaces not supported by the on-board debugger.
