This might be required because the device does not have any physical user input, or simply + * just to streamline the device upgrade process on the host PC. + * + * The following C code snippet may be used to enter the bootloader upon request by the user application. + * By using the watchdog to physically reset the controller, it is ensured that all system hardware is + * completely reset to their defaults before the bootloader is run. This is important; since bootloaders + * are written to occupy a very limited space, they usually make assumptions about the register states based + * on the default values after a hard-reset of the chip. + * + * \code + * #include <avr/wdt.h> + * #include <avr/io.h> + * #include <util/delay.h> + * + * #include <LUFA/Common/Common.h> + * #include <LUFA/Drivers/USB/USB.h> + * + * uint32_t Boot_Key ATTR_NO_INIT; + * + * #define MAGIC_BOOT_KEY 0xDC42ACCA + * #define BOOTLOADER_START_ADDRESS (FLASH_SIZE_BYTES - BOOTLOADER_SEC_SIZE_BYTES) + * + * void Bootloader_Jump_Check(void) ATTR_INIT_SECTION(3); + * void Bootloader_Jump_Check(void) + * { + * // If the reset source was the bootloader and the key is correct, clear it and jump to the bootloader + * if ((MCUSR & (1 << WDRF)) && (Boot_Key == MAGIC_BOOT_KEY)) + * { + * Boot_Key = 0; + * ((void (*)(void))BOOTLOADER_START_ADDRESS)(); + * } + * } + * + * void Jump_To_Bootloader(void) + * { + * // If USB is used, detach from the bus + * USB_ShutDown(); + * + * // Disable all interrupts + * cli(); + * + * // Wait two seconds for the USB detachment to register on the host + * for (uint8_t i = 0; i < 128; i++) + * _delay_ms(16); + * + * // Set the bootloader key to the magic value and force a reset + * Boot_Key = MAGIC_BOOT_KEY; + * wdt_enable(WDTO_250MS); + * for (;;); + * } + * \endcode + * + * Note that the bootloader magic key can be any arbitrary value.
