<div class="textblock"><h2>Getting Started </h2>
|
|
<p>For each supported target there is a demo application user's guide available in the package. This guide includes information about the tool chain required to build the bootloader and a guide to getting started using the supported board platform.</p>
|
|
<h2>Features </h2>
|
|
<p>The bootloader code base contains source code and tool chain projects for building flash-resident bootloaders and flashloaders for the supported platforms. A flash-resident bootloader stays resident in flash along with the user application. A flahloader is loaded to RAM by a small program residing in flash. The bootloader can be used to download and program an initial application image into a blank area on the flash, and to later to update the application.</p>
|
|
<p>The bootloader supports the following communication interfaces for downloading an application:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>USB HID</li>
|
|
<li>USB MSC</li>
|
|
<li>UART</li>
|
|
<li>I2C</li>
|
|
<li>SPI</li>
|
|
<li>CAN</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>The exact interfaces available depend on the target platform.</p>
|
|
<p>Typically, USB and UART connections are made directly to a PC, whereas I2C, SPI and CAN require additional hardware. The bootloader, running on the target platform, acts as a communication slave. The bootloader can automatically detect which peripheral is being used to download the application and, in the case of UART and CAN, automatically detect the baud rate.</p>
|
|
<p>See the <code>apps/bus_pal</code> project for an example using pass-through hardware to connect to a target bootloader over I2C, SPI, and CAN. See the <code>validation/embedded_host</code> project for an example of a full embedded host application.</p>
|
|
<p>The application image is downloaded to the target through a series of command and data packets sent from a host PC or embedded host platform. For more information on the packet protocol, see the code documentation in the doc directory.</p>
|
|
<h2>Host tools </h2>
|
|
<p>The code base also contains source code and build projects for the following PC-based host tools:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Kinetis blhost - command line debug tool to send individual commands to the bootloader</li>
|
|
<li>KinetisFlashTool - GUI application to download and flash an application image</li>
|
|
<li>Kinetis elftosb - command line tool to encrpyt an application image for download</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>The blhost and elftosb applications run on Windows XP and higher, Linux, and Mac OS X. The KinetisFlashTool application runs on Windows XP and higher. </p>
