- Atmel-ICE Programmer and Debugger
Atmel-ICE is a powerful development tool for debugging and programming ARM® Cortex®-M based Atmel® SAM and Atmel AVR® microcontrollers with On-Chip Debug capability.
It supports:
- Programming and on-chip debugging of all Atmel AVR 32-bit microcontrollers on both JTAG and aWire interfaces
- Programming and on-chip debugging of all Atmel AVR XMEGA® family devices on both JTAG and PDI 2-wire interfaces
- Programming (JTAG, SPI, UPDI) and debugging of all Atmel AVR 8-bit microcontrollers with OCD support on either JTAG, debugWIRE or UPDI interfaces
- Programming and debugging of all Atmel SAM ARM Cortex-M based microcontrollers on both SWD and JTAG interfaces
- Programming (TPI) of all Atmel tinyAVR® 8-bit microcontrollers with support for this interface
Consult the supported devices list in the Atmel Studio User Guide for a full list of devices and interfaces supported by this firmware release.

Installing an Arduino Bootloader
December 4, 2013
This tutorial will teach you what a bootloader is and why you would need to install or reinstall it. We will also go over the process of burning a bootloader by flashing a hex file to an Arduino microcontroller.
