Hi all,
I'm trying to understand what's the use of the resistor labelled as "USB boot En" in Arduino Mega 2560 and Uno schematics:
Designator: RN3D

Besides drawing some extra mA when pin is high, does it play a special role in the reset event from 16U2 when USB port is open?
What would happened if removed?
Thank you very much!
