 *  \section SSec_Description Project Description: 
 *
 *  Firmware for an AVRStudio compatible AVRISP-MKII clone programmer. This project will enable the USB AVR series of
 *  microcontrollers to act as a clone of the official Atmel AVRISP-MKII programmer, usable within AVRStudio. In its
 *  most basic form, it allows for the programming of 5V AVRs from within AVRStudio with no special hardware other than
 *  the USB AVR and the parts needed for the USB interface. If the user desires, more advanced circuits incorporating
 *  level conversion can be made to allow for the programming of 3.3V AVR designs.
 *
 *  This device spoofs Atmel's official AVRISP-MKII device PID so that it remains compatible with Atmel's AVRISP-MKII
 *  drivers. When promted, direct your OS to install Atmel's AVRISP-MKII drivers provided with AVRStudio.
 *
 *  Note that this design currently has several limitations:
 *    - Minimum ISP target clock speed of 500KHz due to hardware SPI used
 *    - No reversed/shorted target connector detection and notification
 *
 *  On AVR models with an ADC converter, AVCC should be tied to 5V (e.g. VBUS) and the VTARGET_ADC_CHANNEL token should be
 *  set to an appropriate ADC channel number in the project makefile for VTARGET detection to operate correctly. On models
 *  without an ADC converter, VTARGET will report at a fixed 5V level.
 *
 *  When compiled for the XPLAIN board target, this will automatically configure itself for the correct connections to the
 *  XPLAIN's XMEGA AVR, and will enable only PDI programming support.
