Source for SBDemo.exe or documentation on the SBL interface?

I would really appreciate if someone from TI could clarify on this topic.

We reverse engineered the protocol and wrote our own app.  Unfortunately it seems to be slower than sbdemo.  I am curious what techniques the sbdemo app used to speed up the process.  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TI, could you just release the source code!!!!

For every one interested here are my findings of my reverse engineering effort. Enter bootloader by sending 0xF8.

SBL protocol:

SOF - LEN - CMD1 - CMD2 - DATA – FCS

     SOF:      Start of frame : 0xFE

     LEN:      Length of DATA field, at least 1, max. 127

     CMD1:   0x4D

     CMD2:   0x01: Write CMD

                   0x02: Read CMD

                   0x03: Enable CMD

                   0x04: Handshake CMD

     DATA:   First 2 bytes: memory page to read/write, then data to flash

     FCS:      XOR of all field except SOF

Answer to a command is always the same but with CMD2 |= 0x80 and without data for write and with data for read.

Write command:

The first 2 DATA bytes are the flash page number (example: flash page 16 = 0x1000). Every flash page is 4 bytes. TIs SBL tool always sends 64 bytes and therefore flash page number increases every time (+16).

Read command:

Sends 64 bytes following the flash page number. The first data byte of the answer is the status of the operation (0x00 = Success).

Hi,

sorry for the delay of this answer. Please contact a TI sales representative, who will evaluate this business case, if you would like to get access to SBL code.

Thansk,
