Abstract
An in-system programmable (ISP) system can be programmed by remote access from a host programming system. The remote access can be accomplished over a wired data network, a wireless data network, a radio channel, or any combination of the above. In the ISP system, an ISP controller receives control and programming data through the access interface to program ISP devices in accordance with ISP programming conventions. The ISP controller can be provided by an integrated circuit having a microprocessor core.
Claims15
