CCS: Uniflash and my own hex format

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, C2000WARE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

We use our own hex file format. What are the option for combining this with uniflash?

Is there any option in unflash to interface a intel hex data stream? without saving the hex file as an intermediate step?

Thanks!

Hello,

You will have to save as a file in a format supported by UniFlash.

Please see the below link for a list of supported formats.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply but that is not the answer I need. We use our own format to prevent cloning. So I don't want to save it in a format unflash support. Does TI has a library that I can use in my own program that manage the programming process (in jtag).

Thanks!

Hi,

UniFlash is not open source and hence this is not possible.

May be you can develop your own solution. As you may know, F28004x Flash API library is available for users.

Flash API guide: http://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spnu629

Flash API wiki: https://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/C2000_Flash_FAQ

Flash API usage example is in C2000Ware at C2000Ware_x_xx_xx_xx\driverlib\f28004x\examples\flash\flashapi_ex1_program_autoecc.c.

Or You can try to contact any 3rd party Flash programming solutions like CodeSkin (https://www.codeskin.com/programmer) and see if they can support what you need.

Thanks and regards,
Vamsi
