serial programming is a method of programming the otp or flash ROM of a micro controller using far fewer pins than old parallel methods. usually the pins required are power, ground, reset, clock and either one or two data pins. many microcontrolers even support programing the chip after it has been soldered into the circuit. protocols vary between manufacurer, but most have released the specifications.

What are the frequently used interfacing devices that can be used for programming micro-controllers?

many micro controllers can be programmed by a simple serial port interface you can construct yourself. They also have programming devices you can buy that use either serial or USB ports. If you have code you know is good, often places that sell the microcontrollers will flash the code onto them for you for a nominal fee, saving you a bunch of time if you are getting like 100 of them.

Yes, there are controllers that can still connect via a serial port.


What do you mean by serial programming?

Serial programming is a term that means the opposite of parallel programming. It means the program only proceeds by one program step at a time.

Why micro controller doesn't accept RS-232standards?

Micro controllers work on CMOS logic where the voltage levels are 0 & 5volts or 0 & 3.3 volts, whereas RS 232 protocols define voltage levels to be +12v & -12v. http://www.dnatechindia.com/index.php/Tutorials/8051-Tutorial/Serial-Communication-Basic.html

What is the software required for programming electronic circuit boards?

That depends on what kind of 'circuit board' you are programming. If it is a micro controller, such as the Arduino platform, you can download free programming software. Some types require you to buy the software from the manufacturer. Additionally, most micro controllers require special programming hardware. The Arduino, for example, comes specially packaged so that the programming hardware is built onto the circuit board. A PICAXE, on the other hand, requires a serial connection or a USB to Serial converter. It depends on what kind of micro controller you have. The other thing you may mean is how to program a PLD (Programmable Logic Device) there are nearly as many software engines and hardware programmers for PLDs as there are PLDs in the first place. The best thing to do would be to contact the manufacturer and ask them what you need for the particular chip or circuit you have.
