QUESTION

How can I program flash devices that are connected on the C16x or ST10 microcontroller.

ANSWER

There are several tools available to do this. You might want to have a look at:

• http://www.hitex.co.uk/c166/utilities.html
• http://www.hitex.co.uk/download/btld/btld.html. To program the 29F040 devices on the Keil MCB167-NET board with the BootLoad (Btld) utility, you must make the following selections:
  
  
  • PC Port: Select PC Interface which is used for download with 38600 Baud.
  • usconfigurations: BUSCON0 = 0x04AD, SYSCON = 0x0084, all other BUSCON/ADDRSEL set to 0x0.
  • Target Memory: Load to Flash. Flash Base Address = 0x0, Flash Size in Bytes = 0x100000.
  • Controller: C167 / Derivatives.
  • After Loading...: Jump to Address : 0x0.
  • Before Loading...: Erase flash before loading = YES.
  • Flash Algorithm: 2 AMD Embedded: 29F010, 29F040, 29F400.
