Source code for 5510A bootloader

Andrey56137

Does anybody know if the source code (C code) for the bootloader of the 5510A chip is available somewhere? We weren't able to find it online. We need it to debug an issue we are having of not being able to set breakpoints in the bootloader's assembly code.

Thanks,

Andrey,

Have you looked at the Spectrum Digital Website for example code? Also refer to the 5510 bootloader appnote for details. There are also a few other posts that you can search for on the forum about this issue that you might find useful.

Regards,

Mugdha

Mughda,

Thanks for the links, but those mostly refer to TI's manuals for the 5510, which I already have. What I was looking for is actual C code... I can see what the bootloader does at assembly level by using CCS's "disassembly" view and step-through, but it's hard to read low-level assembly code. The C code should only be a few lines long (I'd expect). It just needs to initialize some things like the data stack and I/O ports, and then wait ( some kind of loop) for the user program to load.
