USB PIC Bootloader

USB PIC Bootloader is a lightweight utility designed to help advanced computer users enhance their PIC18 Enhanced Flash USB Microcontroller devices by performing various operations.

By using this tool, you can program firmware application images directly into the device's chip through its standard USB connectivity. It is fully compatible with USB specifications for HIDs (Human Interface Devices), ensuring that all interface-related operations are handled using standard Microsoft HID drivers.

Key Features:

• Program firmware application images directly into the device


• Compatible with USB specifications for HIDs


• Uses XTEA encryption algorithm for security


• Comes with two separate modules: firmware and user mode


• Switch between modes with software and hardware switching

• Price: FREE


• Compatibility: PIC18 Enhanced Flash USB Microcontroller devices


• Encryption Algorithm: XTEA


• Interface: USB connectivity

Security-wise, USB PIC Bootloader uses an XTEA encryption algorithm to protect the privacy of the firmware application image. The application's code is write-protected, preventing firmware from overwriting it.

USB PIC Bootloader features two separate modules that can be selected using software or hardware switching - a firmware mode and a user mode. The application uses the EEPROM mark to determine which module to use during operation.

In the firmware update mode, the tool communicates with the PC through the device's USB connection, loads the corresponding code, and switches to user mode. When in user mode, the application remaps, interrupts, and resets vectors back to user mode.
