Which Kinetics MCUs come with ROM Bootloaders?

jeremyanderson — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 18:29:32 GMT

This question was asked and answered three years ago, but the link is stale and just lands me on a useless front page. Specifically, if I populate my design with a K66 MCU, will there be a ROM bootloader already there? If so, where is the documentation for using this to bootstrap my system?

Hi Jeremy

Here is a (possibly incomplete) list of parts containing the ROM loader today:
KL03
KL17
KL27
KL28
KL43
KL82
KE15

The K66 doesn't have one but you can load a "serial loader" (see links below) for:
- USB-MSD or USB-CDC device
- SD card or Memory stick
- KBOOT UART
- KBOOT USB-HID
- AN2295 UART
- SREC/iHex UART
- Modbus slave
- I2C slave
- Ethernet web server
