K20 pre-programmed with Open-Sda

hervegarat — Wed, 23 Sep 2015 08:26:37 GMT

Hi All,

Is it possible to buy MK20FM128 pre-programmed with the same OpenSda as in the FRDM-K64F?

I would like to use it on my custom board without have to programm it during production step.

Thanks in advance

Hervé

Hello Herve GARAT:

The K20 comes blank from factory, not pre-programmed with the OpenSDA firmware.

Freescale does offer MCU programming service, but I am not sure if this case applies. See this link:

Please send a direct email to KProgram@freescale.com requesting for information.

Regards!,
Jorge Gonzalez

Good morning Jorge Gonzalez,

I would like complement my application with the same channel for flashing and debugging my firmware, using the MK20DX128VFM5 as it comes with the TWR-K64F120M, so I would not have to use a tool, such as Multilink FX (PEMicro), in my production process.

As you said above:

The K20 comes blank from factory, not pre-programmed with the OpenSDA firmware.

Freescale does offer MCU programming service, but I am not sure if this case applies. See this link:

But, the K20 is not eligible for pre-programmed bootloader, as it is in NXP website. Also, I could not find a way to actually buy any of this pre-programmed parts at the company's site.

Is there any other way I could eliminate the flashing tools from my production process?

Thank you!

Best Regards,
