The Bambino 200 firmwarte can be updated using the standalone NXP DFU Flash Programmer. This tool is convenient for applications that need to install firmware in multiple boards to be deployed in the field. It also allows developers to update the bootloader and firmware to a current version. NetMF applications can install the TinyBooter firmare from the SDK at C:\Program Files (x86)\Micromint\SDK\Bambino200\Firmware. To update firmware, please follow these steps:

1. Install the DFU Flash Programmer to a directory in your hard disk. Currently the NXP DFU programmer is only available for Windows.

2. Place the board in USB boot mode by placing a jumper wire between the two contacts labelled "Boot JP1" (Figure 4-1). If you will be doing frequent updates, you may consider soldering a 2-pin header on that position and use a jumper to enter the USB boot mode.
