2 User Interface
- 2.1 Communication Protocol
  
  This component is responsible for configuring the communication protocol used for data transfer between the bootloader host and bootloader client.
- 2.2 Memory Verification Selector
  
  This component configures which verification method is used for user application verification.
- 2.3 I/O Pins
  
  These components are used to enable the I/O operations of the bootloader firmware.
- 2.4 Application Start Address
  
  This component allows the user to configure where the memory partition for the application begins. This also means that the memory partition of the bootloader client will end at this address.

Introduction

The MCC Melody 8-Bit MDFU Client library is a middleware library designed to configure bootloader clients for both 8-bit PIC and AVR microcontrollers using a common user interface. To properly configure bootloaders for any supported 8-bit device, the 8-Bit MDFU Client library needs to be able to handle different user inputs for each chip architecture. The sections below provide an overview of the design and usage of the 8-bit AVR and PIC UI components available on the 8-Bit MDFU Client library user interface.

Note: Refer to the reference link shared in the Use Case Example section or the Release Notes for information on the required dependencies and installation help.
