BootLoader
Posted on March 18th, 2008
Good news! Finally – after a lot of effort – I’ve managed to do what only Atmel have done so far; complete a working (and FLIP compatible) USB DFU bootloader. Unlike Atmel’s, mine will be completely open source and will be included in the minor 1.3.1 MyUSB release.
Speaking of the new release, it will incorporate quite a few fixes to the library, including patches to make 16MHz USB AVRs work correctly once again. It will also contain fixes to allow low speed devices to enumerate properly and a bunch of other reasonably important patches. Release will be in the next few days, and I will be strongly recommending all users update. Being only a minor release, it will not contain any migration issues.
