SAM4 micro-controllers (Duet Wifi)
====================================
It is not common to use a bootloader with the SAM4 mcu. The chip
itself has a ROM that allows the flash to be programmed from 3.3V
serial port or from USB.
To enable the ROM, the "erase" pin is held high during a reset, which
erases the flash contents, and causes the ROM to run.
The code at https://github.com/shumatech/BOSSA can be used to program
the SAM4. It is necessary to use version `1.8.0` or higher.
To flash an application use something like:
```
bossac --port=/dev/ttyACM0 -b -U -e -w -v -R out/klipper.bin
```

### Duet Wifi step rate benchmark ###
The following configuration sequence is used on the Duet Wifi:
```
allocate_oids count=3
config_stepper oid=0 step_pin=PD6 dir_pin=PD11 min_stop_interval=0 invert_step=0
config_stepper oid=1 step_pin=PD7 dir_pin=PD12 min_stop_interval=0 invert_step=0

The test was last run on commit `e94f3b7` with gcc version
`arm-none-eabi-gcc (15:5.4.1+svn241155-1) 5.4.1 20160919`. The best
