Cannot program EFUSE or test Flash

Post by hlawka_667 »

Partially working HV Rescue Shield 2:
1) Test EEPROM succeeds
2) LFUSE and HFUSE are correctly programmed
3) Cannot program EFUSE
4) Cannot successfully test Flash

What might explain these symptoms?

Thanks.

Hi hlawka - what arduino sketch are you using with the shield? My sketch does not support "Test eeprom" or "Test flash". I am not able to support 3rd party software with the shield.

I’m using the alternative “Plus” code version that’s on the web site, as well as your standard sketch. The test point shows +12.4V. Neither sketch allows the 328P’s EFUSE high nybble or bit 3 to be programmed, or allows the Flash to be tested or programmed.

Thanks.

The latest sketch is here:

Not all bits of the FUSE bytes can be programmed. For a list of valid bits see here: http://eleccelerator.com/fusecalc/fusec ... atmega328p
