ATMEL AVR Programmer and Rapid Prototyping Board.

This (private) project has been designed for purposes:

a) Get a Programmer for the ATMEL AVR with USB Interface, as my laptop has no parallel / serial port.
	(As all the ports are on feed through, it is also possible to programm the AVR to get a JTAG interface)

b) Get the possibility to play with several USB IC's (TUSB 3510 and FTDI 232BM)
   (The TUSB is interesting, but there's no SW available, so as fallback the FTDI can be used)

c) Get a rapid prototyping board for the ATMEL AVR (a "daughter" board can be put on top of
   the board, and access all the ports of the Atmel. 

Also it is possible to generate daughterboards for all the AVR's, so you are not limited to the 8515.
With a little effort (JTAG Programming SW) also the new MCUs can be used....
(Scalability was a goal, too)
