The redesign can be clean room if the source code is not available (iow one starts from the specifications and/or requirements) Might consider a redesign that's a port from MEGA16L to MEGA324PB it currently has engineering samples on the MEGA324PB Xplained Pro with quantity arriving maybe this month.

If that won't work then buy the source code from the teammate. Sometimes an offer can be made for the source code that its creator may accept better that offer is made immediately after the code is accepted.Ĭonsider becoming organic iow create source code within the partnership.
