Description
Product Overview
The ISP Download Cable with FC10P Connector is a high-quality 10-pin flat ribbon cable specifically designed for in-system programming (ISP) and JTAG debugging applications. This 20cm cable serves as the essential bridge between your ISP programmer (such as USBASP, STK500, or AVR programmer) and your target microcontroller board, enabling firmware uploads, debugging, and boundary-scan testing without removing the chip from its circuit.
The cable features a standard 10-pin IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) box header with a 2.54mm (0.1-inch) pin spacing, making it compatible with virtually all development boards, evaluation kits, and custom PCBs that adhere to the common ISP/JTAG pinout standard. The gray flat ribbon construction provides excellent flexibility and durability, while the 20cm length is optimized for desktop development—long enough for convenient workspace arrangement yet short enough to minimize signal degradation and electromagnetic interference.
Whether you are programming AVR microcontrollers (ATmega, ATtiny series), 51 series chips, ARM-based devices via JTAG, or simply prototyping with Arduino or other embedded platforms, this FC10P ISP cable is an indispensable tool for your electronics workbench. The connector features a polarized key (often with a missing pin or notch) to prevent incorrect orientation, ensuring safe and reliable connections every time.
