This Flexible In-system Programmer is a programmer for 8bit AVR processors. The software runs under Windows and GNU/Linux. FLIP needs a Java Runtime Environment (JRE). It supports programming over RS232, USB and CAN.

For FLIP to work, you have to install a bootloader on your target. New processors come with the bootloader present. However, as soon as you use a debugger, such as a JTAGICE, you will overwrite the preinstalled bootloader. You need a debugger to flash the bootloader again. Bootloaders for our supported processor types can be found in the right column. |
Steps
- Get the newest version of FLIP from https://www.microchip.com/en-us/development-tool/FLIP
- Make sure that a bootloader is present. If not, flash a new bootloader with the aid of Microchip Studio and a debugger such as JTAGICE.
