-Arduino Uno and Mega 2560 Firmwares for the ATmega8U2
-
-This directory contains the firmwares used on the ATmega8U2 on the Arduino
-Uno and Arduino Mega 2560. The arduino-usbdfu directory contains the DFU
-bootloader on the 8U2; the arduino-usbserial directory contains the actual
-usb to serial firmware. Both should be compiled against LUFA 100807. The
-two .hex files in this directory combine the dfu and serial firmwares into
-a single file to burn onto the 8U2.
-
-To burn (Uno):
-avrdude -p at90usb82 -F -P usb -c avrispmkii -U flash:w:UNO-dfu_and_usbserial_combined.hex -U lfuse:w:0xFF:m -U hfuse:w:0xD9:m -U efuse:w:0xF4:m -U lock:w:0x0F:m

-To burn (Mega 2560):
-avrdude -p at90usb82 -F -P usb -c avrispmkii -U flash:w:MEGA-dfu_and_usbserial_combined.hex -U lfuse:w:0xFF:m -U hfuse:w:0xD9:m -U efuse:w:0xF4:m -U lock:w:0x0F:m

-
-Note on USB Vendor IDs (VID) and Product IDs (PID): The arduino-usbdfu
-project uses Atmel's VID and MCU-specific PIDs to maintain compatibility
-with their FLIP software. The source code to the arduino-usbserial
-project includes Atmel's VID and a PID donated by them to LUFA. This
-PID is used in LUFA's USBtoSerial project, which forms the basis for
-arduino-usbserial. According to the LUFA documentation, this VID/PID
-combination is:
-
- "For use in testing of LUFA powered devices during development only,
- by non-commercial entities. All devices must accept collisions on this
- VID/PID range (from other in-development LUFA devices) to be resolved
- by using a unique release number in the Device Descriptor. No devices
- using this VID/PID combination may be released to the general public."
-
-The production version of the arduino-usbserial firmware uses the
-Arduino VID. This is only for use with official Arduino hardware and
-should not be used on other products. \ No newline at end of file
