MC56F87233 programming time - OnCE USB TAP

albertospagnolo — Thu, 27 Jul 2017 13:33:54 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'd like to know if the programming time I measure is correct.

With a BDM clock of 8333 kHz, while entering debug with a 33490 bytes program I get:

launching: 3 s
connecting: 5 s
downloading: 26 s

(CW MCU 10.7, Win7 64bit)

I'm a bit concerned of the downloading time. Is it a normal time? Can you suggest a way to reduce this time?

Thank you very much.

Kind regards,

Alberto Spagnolo

Hi, Alberto,

From my experience, it is normal to download the code/data with 26s although I can not give the explanation.

Thank you for your feedback Xiangjun,

I was hoping to be doing something wrong. Debugging with such a programming time is quite painful...

Kind regards,

Hi Alberto,

Just saw your question. Yes debugging with download is a pain.

In the past I used a DSC with a built in bootloader and downloaded code over that and then ran the debugger without download and that process was much faster.

Unfortunately the 56F827xx series does not have a bootloader built in.

I am using the 56F82746 and plan on implementing the bootloader in AN4275 to get the same effect (also I want the bootloader for future code updates)

Hi Peter,

thanks for your feedback.

I agree, debugging with download is a pain and unfortunately my bootloader has to run at 9600 bps because of the application, so it's quite slow anyway.

I think that my best option is to get to the end of this project as soon as possible.

Kind regards,

Alberto
