Checksum failed when upload

Hello！

       I use  Arduino IDE Upload,but it Checksum failed.

I want to know  the "Checksum failed"  error means  in the serial communication or internal flash program stage ？

Will my chip be broken? If it is broken, I will buy a new chip and solder it. Then,Can I use it directly?Is there any other operation that needs to be done?

Before the hex file is programmed to the microcontroller the file is checked for errors using a checksum.  It looks like that checksum did not pass, so the firmware was not programmed on to the microcontroller.  This is may be a problem with the Arduino IDE configuration.

It is extreemly unlikely that the firmware update would cause the microcontroller to stop working and if it does you could re-flash the bootloader image using a PICKIT3 (much easier than soldering a new chip on the board
