RX71m SCI boot

Hi,

can you please guide me how to update code of RX71m MCU using FTD(SCI boot) 

is any operation manual/code sample available for that 

what type of hardware  connection i need to do?

What type of software interface i have to use ?

please suggest

Parents
  • If I understand your question, you want to use the SCI-Interface boot mode of the device to program it?

    In this mode, the RX71M device executes built-in firmware that adheres to a specific SCI communication protocol.  There is no need for additional code for the MCU to operate in this mode.

    The hardware configuration must conform to:

    The software API is defined in the hardware U/M section 53.12:

    This protocol is implemented in the PG-FP6 dedicated programmer, and by the RFP GUI programmer, and there are likely other implementations to be found by online search.

  • Hello JimB san,

    Thanks for the replay,

    the replay can you please confirm below points..

    1. We dont need to implement any specific code for above appplication.

    2. we have to do hardware connection as per below.

    3. on application of Renesas Flash Programmer.

    4. Create New Project select path .

    5. In communication Select COM Port from the Tool Button .

    6. Press connect Button.

    7. Load the particular host which we requred.

    Now my I have a one question

    How we have to power on the board is from exteranal power or it will power automatically from external power supply..

  • 1.  Yes, no code needs to be implemented on the device to utilize the serial programming interface.

    2.  The image that you shared is for USB-boot, not SCI-boot.

    3-7.  Yes, select COM for SCI-Boot

    Options for powering the board depends on the board design - if this is a Renesas board, power can be derived from USB or separate external connection.
