Normally, the - * reprogramming of an AVR device must be performed using a special piece of programming hardware, through one of the - * supported AVR programming protocols - ISP, HVSP, HVPP, JTAG or dW. This can be done through a custom programmer, - * a third party programmer, or an official Atmel AVR tool - for more information, see the Atmel.com website. - * - * Alternatively, you can use the bootloader. From the Atmel factory, each USB AVR comes preloaded with the Atmel - * DFU (Device Firmware Update) class bootloader, a small piece of AVR firmware which allows the remainder of the - * AVR to be programmed through a non-standard interface such as the serial USART port, SPI, or (in this case) USB. - * Bootloaders have the advantage of not requiring any special hardware for programming, and cannot usually be erased - * or broken without an external programming device. They have disadvantages however; they cannot change the fuses of - * the AVR (special configuration settings that control the operation of the chip itself) and a small portion of the - * AVR's FLASH program memory must be reserved to contain the bootloader firmware, and thus cannot be used by the - * loaded application. Atmel's DFU bootloader is either 4KB (for the smaller USB AVRs) or 8KB (for the larger USB AVRs). - * - * If you wish to use the DFU bootloader to program in your application, refer to your DFU programmer's documentation. - * Atmel provides a free utility called FLIP which is USB AVR compatible, and an open source (Linux compatible) - * alternative exists called "dfu-programmer". - */
