Entering the boot loader program
Entering the Boot Loader takes place by a jump or call from the application program. This may be initiated by a trig-
ger such as a command received via UART, or SPI interface. Alternatively, the Boot Reset Fuse can be
programmed so that the Reset Vector is pointing to the Boot Flash start address after a reset. In this case, the Boot
Loader is started after a reset. After the application code is loaded, the program can start executing the application
code. Note that the fuses cannot be changed by the MCU itself. This means that once the Boot Reset Fuse is pro-
grammed, the Reset Vector will always point to the Boot Loader Reset and the fuse can only be changed through
the serial or parallel programming interface.

1. “1” means unprogrammed, “0” means programmed.
