bootloader firmware for parts in the same family - teletype-guy - 2013-02-18
Hi again:
Just a quick question about the bootloader firmware for parts in the same family. Of course, the BL would need to be rebuilt for parts with different flash memory sizes, so it is placed at the correct place, but what about parts with the same flash, but more pins?
For example, I have assembled firmware for the 18F26K22 -- can I use the same BL firmware for the 18F46K22 or do I need to re-build it for some reason?
Same question for using BL firmware from an 18F27J13 on a 47J13.
thx
gil smith
