Right now, it’s just a proof-of-concept to demonstrate that reading flash memory is possible. [HC] used an Arduino Mega to pull the manufacture ID off a flash chip. Because there isn’t exactly ...

However, these two areas are where the Arduino Mega shines. It's built with 256 KB of flash memory and over 50 pins, perfect for managing larger and more demanding projects with multiple components.

Aside from tiny-soldering skills, [Vinod] wrote his own custom bootloader for the AVR-based Arduino. With just enough memory to back up the AVR’s flash, the bootloader can shuffle the existing ...
