Error in documentation? (KE1xFP100M168SF0RM)

xxxajk — Thu, 04 May 2017 03:14:52 GMT

Document Number: KE1xFP100M168SF0RM
Rev. 2, 09/2016

page 568 says:

ROM bootloader also supports application integrity check. It performs a CRC
check over a configurable range of flash if requested via BCA option, and
asserts a pin to indicate the failure. The available CRC check failure pin
is shown as below:
And lists PTA11

Page 633 says:
If the bootloader returns kStatus_AppCrcCheckOutOfRange or
kStatus_AppCrcCheckFailed, then an external pin (PTA6) will also be
asserted, to indicate CRC check failure.

Is it

PTA11

PTA6

or BOTH?

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for your feedback and sorry for any inconvenience that may cause.

Checked by the owner, the PTA6 is a typo, should be PTA11.

I reported this typo to document team for fix, thanks a lot for your finding!

Best Regards,

Robin

Thanks! There are other typos in the documentation, sometimes a word is omitted, but I can manage to understand from the context, would you like me to post those as I find them again? Better docs helps everyone.

I'll make a collection on this and other RM/DS over the weekend.

Errors like this have stalled progress for my client's next product, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Happy to lend a hand.

Sorry I have not had time to add a lot here, been very busy...

Here's an obvious one for you to forward to the documentation team.

Page 1199

45.4.1.2 Software reset
Writing 1 to CR[SWR] forces the equivalent of a POR to the rest of the RTC module.
CR[SWR] is not affected by the software reset and must be cleared by software. The
access control registers are not affected by either VBAT POR or the software reset; they
are reset by the chip reset.

There is no VBAT on this device. :-)
