Mass erase when debugging on MCUXpresso

odd_bikes — Thu, 09 Aug 2018 16:20:41 GMT

Hi,

I have a Kinetis-based project that I'm developing on the MCU Xpresso IDE. I use LPC Link2 as a debug probe. In the past, I've been using CodeWarrior and that, by default, performed a mass erase of the chip every time I started debugging. Is there any way to achieve a similar behavior on MCU Xpresso?

Thank you!

Alex

This can be achieved by the use of a connect script. Supplied with MCUXPresso IDE in the location <install dir>/IDE/bin/Scripts is a script file called kinetismasserase.scp. If you reference this script file as a connect script within your project launch configuration, then the part will be mass erased on each debug connection (before any other flash programming operation). Note you would replace the existing kinetisconnect.scp.

A question however, is why you would want to do this. The flash drivers on these parts will perform sector erase operations as required. However a feature of these parts is that a erase is rapid, so there is little time penalty in erasing every time.

The MCUXpresso IDE User Guide section 4.2 An Introduction to Launch Configuration Files may be of assistance.

Yours,

Hi,

I've tried that before contacting you, but it doesn't seem to work. Attached is the log.

Hi,

Any feedback on this?

By default, the kinetisconnect.scp is configured as the connect script for most Kinetis part launch configurations. This script will report if the Kinetis part is secure and requires a mass erase, but will initiate a mass erase. This is intentional. The kinetismasserase.scp script will mass erase, but only if the part is secure. A question posed to you is why you would want to mass erase every time? If you insist, you can modify the kinetismasserase.scp script file to bypass the secure check, and proceed with mass erase. So, for example, in the kinetismasserase.scp script, find and modify line 790 as below:

790   if s% & 0x00000004 Then Goto 860
800   REM ================================================================
810   Print "Part is not secured"

790   Goto 860
800   REM ================================================================
810   Print "Part is not secured"

Of course, you need to use kinetismasserase.scp as your launch configuration connect script.

Thanks and regards,
