Appendix A

To allow firmware to be downloaded through USB, U4 is connected to the microcontroller bootstrap loader
pins. The DTR and RTS pins are connected to the RST and TCK inputs on the microcontroller to allow the
serial bootstrap loader to operate. These lines are not isolated; instead, they are switched through SW9,
which also connects USB ground and power to the microcontroller ground and power. Normally this switch
is open; it is only switched on when firmware is to be downloaded through USB. This feature also protects
the microcontroller from unknown states on these pins at power-up.
