Getting Started

Quick Start Guide​


Powering the Board​

The board can be powered using any of the following methods:

  • USB power through the onboard USB programmer
  • External 7–12V DC input
  • External regulated 5V supply

Ensure that only one power source is connected at a time.


Programming the MCU​

The board supports multiple programming options:

  • Program the onboard AT89S52 MCU using the built-in USB programmer
  • Program an external AT89S52 MCU using the ICSP connection
  • Upload firmware directly from ProgISP

The onboard user LED is connected to P1.2.

To get started:

  1. Create a simple LED blink program.
  2. Compile the source code and generate the HEX file.
  3. Program the MCU using ProgISP.
  4. Verify that the onboard LED blinks as expected.
