Chapter 2
Using the Embedded Bootloader

This chapter describes the Embedded Bootloader functionality. A detailed description of the functions
briefly mentioned in this chapter can be found in

Chapter 7

.

2.1 Upload Firmware

The Embedded Bootloader can be used in different system configurations depending on the PCB and the
application. The application should have a user interface feature that makes it possible for the application
to call the Enable_Download_Firmware() function:

The application can optionally call the Hard_Reset() function to perform a reset, or the board can be reset
manually. The board will now start up in Embedded Bootloader mode.

Start the PC-Tool. See

Chapter 3

for more information.
