For selecting a hardware programmer when programming a board or chip and not using the onboard USB-serial connection. Normally you won't need this, but if you're [burning a bootloader](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/BuiltInExamples/ArduinoISP) to a new microcontroller, you will use this.

The items in this menu allow you to burn a [bootloader](/en/Hacking/Bootloader) onto the microcontroller on an Arduino board. This is not required for normal use of an Arduino board but is useful if you purchase a new ATmega microcontroller (which normally come without a bootloader). Ensure that you've selected the correct board from the **Boards** menu before burning the bootloader on the target board. This command also set the right fuses.
