Bootloaders

Many of our products are based on microcontrollers themselves - so they can be upgraded with new functionality.

You don't need any special equipment to do this, all you need is a TTL serial to USB converter, and the software below. You will need a ".hex" file, which contains the actual firmware update,  

To update the firmware, see instructions in your datasheet or in the turorials section here.  If you have any questions, please contact us at support [at] embeddedadventures dot com.

"Screamer" is a venerable bootloader program which has been modified by many along the way, including this version in which we have ported it to C# to run under the free Visual Studio from the original Visual Basic.
