Hello.

Yes, the #3162 A-Star 328PB Micro comes preloaded with an Arduino-compatible serial bootloader that enables programming through the Arduino IDE via a USB-to-serial adapter like our USB AVR Programmer v2.1.

You can find instructions for connecting the programmer to the A-Star in the “Connecting to the serial interface” section of the A-Star 328PB user’s guide. After it is connected, you can follow the instructions in the “Programming using Arduino IDE” section.
