imx6ul serial download via UART

jochenstehle — Fri, 18 Aug 2017 09:02:36 GMT

Hi together,

i want to use the Serial Download via UART1 of the i.MX6UL. I tested it with my own HW and with the imx6ulevk Board from NXP.

i used the imx_usb_loader --> the UART version without HW flow control option: imx_uart -n

Did someone get the serial download via UART work?

Regards,

Jochen

Hello Jochen Stehle,

It appears as if the i.MX6UL is not supported by the imx_usb_loader. This tool is developed by Boundary Devices.

gary_bisson, would you know if the i.MX6UL is supported by the imx_usb_loader or if it’s planned to be supported by this tool?

Regards,

since last week we are able to download uboot via uart (seriell download) with the imx_usb_loader.

In our case we used the options -n -N -v.

Because we dont use rts/cts. After the download we can see the seriell console

Regards

Jochen
