serprog

This page is a first draft only and serves to collect information about the serprog protocol and the programmers implementing it.

Protocol

See serprog-protocol.txt in the source tree. It is designed to be compact and allow efficient storage in limited memory of programmer devices.

There is a draft for an extension of the serprog protocol to SPI. FIXME: Link there.
