A little tool to simplify programming AVRs using the ISP. I wanted to be able to program my Atmel MCUs without always having to solder a 6pin male connector to my boards. To ensure proper contacting all 6 contacts I decided to go for pogo pins. This little adapter is stable and I don't have to waste a connector on each board and I do not need to provide space for the connector in a housing either.
I put a 490107670612 SKEDD connector on a flat cable. I don't have to hold it still while programming. I don't have to check the orientation of the connector when programming. It doesn't require a mating connector on the PCB.
