Microcode Bootloader without MAX232

[mister_e]

You can even replace the MAX232 IC by Transistor or else inverter circuit.

Thanks for both of you of the reply.


By the way, do I need to setup all the configuration such as the ADC, comparator in the bootloader file? Or when setup it up in the program code?

Please help.

Thanks

You don't have to set anything else than config fuses... wich often are correctly set.

Hi

When using the Microcode loader, I found that on my laptop I have to hit reset and then click away the waiting for reset box to see the reset message, yet on my desktop it is okay.

I use a USB-Serial link on the laptop the the built in serial port of desktop and there does seem to be a slight difference when using the software.

So worth being aware of.

If you follow this link it will explain more showing method1 and method2.

Thanks!

The only thing if using usb to serial converter, most probably we need to use the hard reset button to pull the MLCR to Gnd. Is the above statement true?

If the loader file that I have only provided in 4Mhz and 20 Mhz, but i want to have the INTRC Clock Out as the clock system, what should I do? It is possible to modify the hex value in the bootloader file according to the configuration hex location?

Sorry! so many question here.

Thank very much.
