Hi everyone!
I'm very happy with my prototype based on the 3.6. So I think it's time to move to the next phase. I am wondering how the bootloader (from PJRC) chip can be used. Would it be OK to have the bootloader on a ICSP programmer and only use it to program the main MCU chip but omit it from the final design? Or is the bootloader chip needed every time the main MCU chip is powered and so present permanently on every board?
Thanks for your advice (and sorry if my terminology is wrong).
