Hi.
I bought an ATmega328P chip from mouser. After soldering it to a PCB, it worked just fine, but the clock seemed to be 8 times slower than it should have been. I thought that the problem is with the fuses, so after searching for a bit I found the default fuses for the Arduino and uploaded them to my ATmega328p. Since then the USBaps cannot communicate with it.
I am using an 8MHz external crystal oscillator.
As far as I understand the fuses are both for 8MHz and the 16MHz versions of the Arduino, so my question is, do I have to change the crystal oscillator to a 16MHz one, or did I just brick the microcontroller?
Thanks for the help in advance!
