The ATmega103(L) and ATmega128(L) can be programmed using both SPI and Highvoltage Parallel Programming. This sub section will explain how to connect the programming cables to successfully use one of these two modes. The AVR Studio STK500 software is used in the same way as for other AVR parts.
The ATmega128(L) also supports Self Programming. See AVR109 application note for more information on this topic.
