ABSTRACT:
A method of programming and testing a microcontroller includes providing a connector having a plurality of ports on the circuit board containing the microcontroller, and providing programming data to a first one or more of the ports. Each of the first one or more of the ports is in electronic communication with a respective one of a first one or more of the pins of the microcontroller. The method further includes causing the microcontroller to provide selected diagnostic data on a second one or more of the pins, wherein each of the second one or more of the pins is in electronic communication with a respective one of a second one or more of the ports, receiving the selected diagnostic data from the second one or more of the ports and converting at least a portion of the received selected diagnostic data into one or more analog signals.
