Hi all ,
I have just designed a board with a JTAG interface and ISP interface ( with some good advice from past discussions on this forum)and have also bought the JTAG programmer. Now before I send the board for layout , I am looking at the nitty gritty of bootloading a hello world programme ( flashing leds!) on it. Does the ATMEL parts come preprogrammed with a standard bootloader in the boot section of the flash , so that I can compile link and load using the AVRISP mkII? If yes what are the functionalities of the boot loader?
If no are there any example bootloader for ATmega which i could use to start off, without reinventing the wheel.
