8-Bit PIC® MCU Bootloader Code Generator: A Simple Way To Add Remote Update Capability To Your Application
Summary
As embedded devices evolve in both capability
and connectivity so does the need to enable
remote application updates. Not limited to a single
communications protocol, embedded connectivity takes
many forms and is essential in growing markets such as
the Internet of Things (IoT). Remote firmware updates
allow for simplified and efficient upgrades to an existing
application while increasing a product's useful life. The
addition of new features to a product can be used to
maintain a competitive advantage against new market
offerings or unlock existing fee-based premium content.
Additionally, software fixes can be quickly propagated to
ensure reliable system operation.
