  45  *  \section Sec_Description Project Description:
  46  *
  47  *  This bootloader enumerates to the host as a CDC Class device (virtual serial port), allowing for AVR109
  48  *  protocol compatible programming software to load firmware onto the AVR.
  49  *
  50  *  Out of the box this bootloader builds for the USB1287, and will fit into 4KB of bootloader space. If
  51  *  you wish to enlarge this space and/or change the AVR model, you will need to edit the BOOT_START and MCU
  52  *  values in the accompanying makefile.
  53  *
  54  *  This bootloader is compatible with the open source application AVRDUDE, or Atmel's AVRPROG.
  55  *
  56  *  After running this bootloader for the first time on a new computer, you will need to supply the .INF
  57  *  file located in this bootloader project's directory as the device's driver when running under Windows.
  58  *  This will enable Windows to use its inbuilt CDC drivers, negating the need for custom drivers for the
  59  *  device. Other Operating Systems should automatically use their own inbuilt CDC-ACM drivers.
  60  *

  70  *        using the byte-level commands.
