Does the bootloader come already loaded in flash when you purchase the chip or do you have to load it ? Thanks Joe McCarron |

I use the DP256 religiously. it comes erased. there is no software in it. the boot
loader to the best of my knowledge has to be loaded via the bdm cable. once thats done i
do believe you can load flash and eeprom code via standard rs-232 serial interface. hope this helps. justin student ----- Original Message ----- From: Joe McCarron To: Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 7:01 AM Subject: [68HC12] bootloader for 9s12dp256 Does the bootloader come already loaded in flash when you purchase the chip or do you have to load it ?

Joe, It depends which chip you are using. Some of the newer HCS12 mask-sets and derivatives come with a loaded bootloader already programmed in the Flash. The bootloader can be used to load your own Flash content via an SCI ports or a CAN port. Application note 2546 in the following link describes this bootloader: http://www.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/app_note/AN2546.pdf Doron Nohau Corporation HC12 In-Circuit Emulators www.nohau.com/emul12pc.html At 13:01 10/09/2004 +0000, you wrote: >Does the bootloader come already loaded in flash when >you purchase the chip or do you have to load it ? > >Thanks >Joe McCarron [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] |

Guys, I am certain that the bootloader is not yet on any production part and the date for introduction has not yet been set. I will pass on the comment to the guy who initiated the project that the app note indicates otherwise.
