First I need to say, I'm a complete electrics newbie, so I need your help.
I have got a standalone Atmega 2560, which I want to program. I connected MISO, MOSI, SCK, RESET, 5V and GND to an Arduino Uno. In addition a 16MHZ oscillator is connected to XTAL1 and XTAL2 plus I pull all VINs of the Atmega with a 100nF to GND. Plus I connected a separate VIN and GND to the 2560.
I programmed the Arduino Uno as an "Arduino as ISP". Afterwards I connected the 2560 as mentioned above, changed the board to "Mega 2560" and tried to upload a sketch through the Arduino and I get the error message: avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer
Is there something I missed?
