Boot TRK KEA128 via UART

[jashanm]

hi all,

          i am using TRK KEA128 in my project, i want to boot KEA128 using another controller via UART. Can some one help me out (with some resources, which would help me a lot) ?

Hi Jashan M,

I'd like to confirm with your whether you want to apply an bootloader on KEA128 or not, then to receive the application code via UART interface?

I'm looking forward to your reply.
Have a great day,

Hi Jashan M,

There's no specific boot loader demo for KEA128.

However I'd like to suggest you can port the boot loader demo which be applicable to Kinets E series to KEA128,

because E series and EA series are almost same except a few peripheral modules.

Please learn more information about the boot loader demo through the links below.

Hope it helps.
Have a great day,

Hi

Note that the uTasker project includes SREC, KBOOT (compatible) and AN2295 Developer's Serial Bootloaders (compatible) for the TRK KEA128, which build with the following IDEs.

• Freescale's Kinetis Design Studio (KDS)
• Freescale's CodeWarrior 10.x
• Rowley Associate's Crossworks
• CooCox CoIDE
• IAR Embedded Workbench
• Keil µVision
• Green Hills
• Atollic TrueSTUDIO for ARM
• Standalone GCC from Makefile
• VisualStudio for Kinetis simulation

It also alows SD-card loading if ever required!

Regards

Mark
