The name expands to Basic Open Source SAM-BA Application, reflecting the goal of a simpler programmer for SAM-family microcontrollers. The GitHub repository dates to August 2011, and the README describes both the GUI-oriented BOSSA project and the command-line bossac tool. The project is BSD-licensed and written primarily in C++. ### Historique d'adoption The batch input records packaging in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, and Nix, which matches BOSSA's long tail as an embedded host tool used from developer laptops and build systems. BOSSA also became familiar outside the original ShumaTech audience through development-board support; the README lists SAMD21 and SAMD51 among supported families and credits board contributions from Atmel, David Crocker, and Adafruit Industries. ### Modes d'utilisation Developers use bossac to write binary images to the flash or ROM of supported Atmel SAM devices over USB or serial connections, and to inspect or dump target memory. GUI BOSSA covers interactive programming workflows, while bossac is better suited to scripts and IDE toolchains. The tool is usually invoked after a device is placed into its SAM-BA bootloader mode, so it is packaged as a host-side flashing utility rather than as firmware. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent BOSSA is package-nerd significant because a tiny-looking formula provides a critical bridge between general-purpose developer machines and microcontroller boot ROMs. Its command names matter: users often search for bossac because IDEs and embedded build systems invoke that executable even though the upstream project name is BOSSA. ### Chronologie - 2011-08: Official GitHub repository metadata shows the BOSSA repository created. - 2016: GitHub release metadata shows 1.7.0 in the public release feed. - 2023: Repository metadata shows upstream activity continuing into the 1.9.x era. - 2026: Package-manager input records Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, MacPorts, and Nix availability. ### Related projects - Atmel SAM-BA is the proprietary tool and boot-assistant ecosystem BOSSA was created to replace. - bossac is the command-line BOSSA frontend shipped by this package. - Atmel SAM device families such as SAMD21, SAMD51, SAM3, SAM4, and SAM7 are the target microcontroller families listed by the upstream README. ### Sources - - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Notes de sécurité narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Risque Geiger:** vert / faible - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Autres enregistrements de gestionnaires de paquets - Debian apt - bossa - 1.9.1-3+b6: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: bossa from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Atmel SAM ARM microcontroller flash programming GUI | https://www.shumatech.com/web/products/bossa - Debian apt - bossa-cli - 1.9.1-3+b6: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: bossa-cli from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Atmel SAM ARM microcontroller flash programming utility | https://www.shumatech.com/web/products/bossa - Nix - bossa: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/bo/bossa/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - bossa - 1.9.1-3ubuntu5: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: bossa from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Atmel SAM ARM microcontroller flash programming GUI | https://www.shumatech.com/web/products/bossa - Ubuntu apt - bossa-cli - 1.9.1-3ubuntu5: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: bossa-cli from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Atmel SAM ARM microcontroller flash programming utility | https://www.shumatech.com/web/products/bossa - MacPorts - bossa: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: cross/bossa/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
