Arduino Uno AVR Dragon Connection

18 January 2016

Use a 6-way ribbon cable with two 6-pin (3 by 2) female IDC connectors to connect from the ISP connector on the AVR Dragon to the ICSP header of the Arduino Uno. Pin 1 on the AVR Dragon ISP header is marked with a "1". Pin 1 on the Arduino Uno is marked with a small dot. Images below show the header markings in more detail.
