The possibilities are limitless with the Chameleon. We wanted to take the work out of generating video, audio, reading
keyboards and mice out of the picture for you, but at the same time insulate you from what’s going on under the hood –
unless you really want to know.
Next, let’s inventory your Chameleon AVR 8-Bit Kit.
1.1 Package Contents
You should have the following items in your kit, referring to Figure 1.2.
Not Included
The Chameleon will run off the USB cable, so you do not require a wall adapter for development. Also, the Chameleon
AVR is pre-loaded with the Arduino bootloader, therefore, if you use the Chameleon in “Arduino mode” only you will not
need an Atmel AVR ISP MK II programmer, but we recommend one so that you can use AVR Studio to write more
advanced C/C++ and ASM programs and to have more control over the platform. Additionally, if you inadvertently damage
the FLASH'ed bootloader you will have to reload it. Thus, you need an AVR ISP MK II or similar programming hardware
tool in the event you need to re-FLASH the bootloader.
