Having problem burning bootloader to custom Atmega328p board
-
Hi all,
I have made a custom board with Atmega328P SMD IC and now I am having a problem flashing it. I have flashed multiple chips like these earlier, however this time I am having a hard time figuring out the issue.
I am using Arduino UNO as an ISP programmer to burn bootloader but getting responses like Attempt 1 of 10 - stk500() is not responding etc., like that. I need some help regarding this issue.
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated. Please ask me for any additional information that I might have not mentioned in this post.
Thanks in advance.

@kowshik1729 Did you double-checked the ISP Pins connection? I also faced similar issue because of cold solder joints. also if possible can you share the ICSP connection diagram and the methods you used to flash!

@salmanfaris I am using Arduino UNO as ISP programmer.(General ISP connections are made). I used both Arduino IDE and also avrdude command line to burn the bootloader. I am sharing link to pictures and debug outputs I got on both avrdude and arduino here. Please check it and let me know if it rings any bells for you.

@zainmuhammed Can try capturing the GPS when the device is starting the loop instead after joining the LoRaWAN and see?
You can put the GPS value on top of the loop or setup function.
Also, what kind of gateway are you using? Is it configured okay, OTA is done?

@salmanfaris Today I tried after connecting a 18650 cell,
Data getting in console after integration of both lora and gps.
here you can see that GPS value is 0,0. also in my previous post you can see that GPS value is not reading.
Also the status LED is active after it is connected to the satellite. -
Hi @zainmuhammed ,
Can you share the GPS and LoRa output when it’s working?
Also can try capturing the GPS when the device is starting the loop instead after joining the LoRaWAN and see?
Also make sure the device provides have enough to modules. The GPS need more power when you cold start.

this is the code
