Hi,

Would you mind to advise me what debugger to use for AVR ATMega16, 32 uP. Something like the ICD2 in Microchip. I guess you'll recomend you to use IAR C fro AVR.

Best regards

If you would like to use a hardware based debugger Atmel Jtag ICE seems to be quite good.

You can also look here for a "self made" copy of the ICE:

If you can live with a software based solution, you can use the free AVR Studio from Atmel.

Compilers I have used for the AVR are:
IAR, Codevision and Imagecraft AVR.
In my opinion IAR and Codevision are very good with Imagecraft following two steps behind (bigger codesize, not so user friendly as the other two)

IAR has built in software debugger while the other two use Atmel AVR Studio for debugging.

Codevision can control the Atmel ISP (in circuit programmer) directly which is a very nice feature during software development.

best regards
