    Hello Qiuchi,

    CCS Uniflash is a standalone tool used to program on-chip flash memory on TI MCUs and on-board flash memory for Sitara processors. Uniflash has a GUI, command line, and scripting interface. The Uniflash can be used to program the bootloader to the flash, or program the application code to the flash. It can be used as bootlader to receive data from UART, or DCAN, or Ethernet etc.

    Qiuchi,

    I am sorry for my typo. The Uniflash can not be used as a bootloader to receive data from UART, or DCAN, or Ethernet etc.
