RM57L843: Uniflash for flashing external connected SPI flash

Part Number: RM57L843
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

Hi,

we have used Uniflash to flash the internal RM57 flash. Additonally the RM57 design here has an external SPI flash connected. I don't think there is a general way for Uniflash to be able to flash that external SPI flash. Is that correct?

The intent is to be able to have a faster flashing interface, compared to what currently is done with a bootloader getting a flashing image via CAN.

There are some targets were bootloader code can be downloaded via Uniflash that then can flash external Flash devices, but Hercules is not on that list.

We are also looking at the Hercules bootloader appnote http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/tidu547/tidu547.pdf

But I think Uniflash is not a good starting point. What do you think?

Thanks,
