28.2. Overview
In this device, the Boot Loader Support provides a real Read-While-Write Self-Programming mechanism
for downloading and uploading program code by the MCU itself. This feature allows flexible application
software updates controlled by the MCU using a Flash-resident Boot Loader program. The Boot Loader
program can use any available data interface and associated protocol to read code and write (program)
that code into the Flash memory, or read the code from the program memory. The program code within
the Boot Loader section has the capability to write into the entire Flash, including the Boot Loader
memory. The Boot Loader can thus even modify itself, and it can also erase itself from the code if the
feature is not needed anymore. The size of the Boot Loader memory is configurable with fuses and the
Boot Loader has two separate sets of Boot Lock bits which can be set independently. This gives the user
a unique flexibility to select different levels of protection.
28.3. Application and Boot Loader Flash Sections
The Flash memory is organized in two main sections, the Application section and the Boot Loader
section. The size of the different sections is configured by the BOOTSZ Fuses. These two sections can
have different level of protection since they have different sets of Lock bits.
28.3.1. Application Section
The Application section is the section of the Flash that is used for storing the application code. The
protection level for the Application section can be selected by the application Boot Lock bits (Boot Lock
bits 0). The Application section can never store any Boot Loader code since the SPM instruction is
disabled when executed from the Application section.
28.3.2. BLS – Boot Loader Section
While the Application section is used for storing the application code, the Boot Loader software must be
located in the BLS since the SPM instruction can initiate a programming when executing from the BLS
only. The SPM instruction can access the entire Flash, including the BLS itself. The protection level for
the Boot Loader section can be selected by the Boot Loader Lock bits (Boot Lock bits 1).
