针对PIC18F的CAN Bootloader的CAN微控制器

INTRODUCTION
Among the many features built into Microchip’s
Enhanced FLASH Microcontroller devices is the capa-
bility of the program memory to self-program. This very
useful feature has been deliberately included to give
the user the ability to perform bootloading operations.
Devices like the PIC18F458 are designed with a desig-
nated “boot block”, a small section of protectable pro-
gram memory allocated specifically for bootload
firmware.
