With the merger of NXP and Freescale, the NXP USB VID/PID program, which was previously deployed on LPC Microcontrollers, has been extended to Kinetis Microcontrollers and i.MX Application Processors. The USB VID/PID Program enables NXP customers without USB-IF membership to obtain free PIDs under the NXP VID. What is USB VID/PID Program? The NXP USB VID program will allow users to apply for the NXP VID and get up to 3 FREE PIDs. For more details, please review the application form and associated FAQ below. Steps to apply for the NXP USB VID/PID Program Step 1: Fill the application form with all relevant details including contact information. Step 2: NXP will review the application and if approved, will issue you the PIDs within 4 weeks FAQ for the USB VID/PID Program Can I use this VID for any microcontroller in the NXP portfolio? >> No. This program is intended only for the Cortex M based series of LPC Microcontrollers and Kinetis Microcontrollers, and Cortex A based series of i.MX Application Processors. What are the benefits of using the NXP VID/PID Program? >> USB-IF membership not required >> Useful for low volume production runs that do not exceed 10,000 units >> Quick time to market Can I use the NXP VID and issued PID/s for USB certification? >> You may submit a product using the NXP VID and issued PID/s for compliance testing to qualify to use the Certified USB logo in conjunction with the product, but you must provide written authorization to use the VID from NXP at the time of registration of your product for USB certification. Additionally, subject to prior approval by USB-IF, you can use the NXP VID and assigned PID/s for the purpose of verifying or enabling interoperability. What are the drawbacks of using the NXP VID/PID program? >> Production run cannot exceed 10,000 units. See NXP VID application for more details. >> Up to 3 PIDs can be issued from NXP per customer. If more than 3 PIDs are needed, you have to get your own VID from usb.org: http://www.usb.org/developers/vendor/ >> The USB integrators list is only visible to people who are members of USB-IF. NXP has full control on selecting which products will be visible on the USB integrators list. How do I get the VID if I don't use NXP’s VID? >> You can get your own VID from usb.org. Please visit http://www.usb.org/developers/vendor/ Do I also get the license to use the USB-IF’s trademarked and licensed logo if I use the NXP VID? >> No. No other privileges are provided other than those listed in the NXP legal agreement. If you wish to use USB-IF’s trademarked and licensed USB logo, please follow the below steps:                 1. The company must be a USB vendor (i.e. obtain a USB vendor ID).                 2. The company must execute the USB-IF Trademark License Agreement.                 3. The product bearing the logo must successfully pass USB-IF Compliance Testing and appear on the Integrators List under that company’s name. Can I submit my product for compliance testing using the NXP VID and assigned PIDs? >> Yes, you would be able to submit your products for USB-IF certification by using the NXP VID and assigned PID. However, if the product passes the compliance test and gets certified, it will be listed under “NXP Semiconductors” in the Integrators list. Also, you will not have access to use any of the USB-IF trademarked and licensed USB logos. How long does it take to obtain the PID from NXP? >> It can take up to 4 weeks to get the PIDs from NXP once the application is submitted. Are there any restrictions on the types of devices that can be developed using the NXP issued PIDs? >> This service requireds the USB microcontroller to be NXP products. Can I choose/request for a specific PID for my application? >> No. NXP will not be able to accommodate such requests.

@@This article describes how to do in-system reprogramming of Kinetis for Cortex-M4 core devices using standard communication media such as SCI. Most of the codes are written in C so that make it easy to migrate to other MCUs. The solution has been adopted by customers. This bootloader is based on FRDM-K22 demo board and KDS3.0. The bootloader and user application source codes are provided. GUI is also provided. Customer can make their own bootloader applications based on them. The application can be used to upgrade single target board and multi boards connected through networks such as RS485. The bootloader application checks the availability of the nodes between the input address range, and upgrades firmware nodes one by one automatically. Key features of the bootloader: Able to update (or just verify) multiple devices in a network. Application code and bootloader code are in separated projects, convenient for mass production and firmware upgrading. Bootloader code size is small, only around 3k, which reduces on chip memory resources. Source code available, easy for reading and migrating. For Cortex-M0+ products, please refer to here :Kinetis Bootloader to Update Multiple Devices in a Network - for Cortex-M0+ , it based on FRDM-KL26. The main difference between Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M0+ is the FLASH program routine. - In Cotex-M4 core kinetis, we need copy the Flash operating routines to RAM. In the bootloader code, the copy to ram code is realized in the function of “FLASH_Initialization()”: Byte buffer[200]={0}; - In Cotex M0+ core kinetis, we do not need to copy the Flash operating routines to RAM. Platform Control Register (MCM_PLACR) is added. The MCM_PLACR register selects the arbitration policy for the crossbar masters and configures the flash memory controller. Enabling ESFC bit can stall flash controller when flash is busy.  Setting ESFC bit can well-balance time sequence of Flash reading and writing – when writing Flash, reading Flash instruction can wait, and vice versa. Using ESFC bit can make our flash programming easier. Thus one Flash can write itself, which is not possible for other one Flash MCU without ESFC bit control. ESFC bit is easy to be set in C code: For more information, please see attached document and code. User can also download the document and source code from Github: https://github.com/jenniezhjun/Kinetis-Bootloader.git

Actually the latest FSL USB stack has become part of KSDK , so it is recommended customer design USB application based on KSDK, while there are some old parts like K70, K60F and KL25 are still not supported in KSDK yet, so USB stack ver 4.1.1 is somewhat of help for those who still develop application based on those parts. USB stack ver 4.1.1 supports K70 instead of K60F, but since they are both Kinetis 120MHz parts, so the porting is very easy, here I provide a porting guide for this part. The porting is based on K70 USB examples, either Host or Device. 1. Replace the device header file. Use MK60F12.h instead, which may be extracted from KINETIS_120MHz_SC(Kinetis 120MHz bare metal sample code) , and put this header file in the folder of "C:\Freescale\Freescale USB Stack v4.1.1\Source\Host\source\bsp\P3" for Host or "C:\Freescale\Freescale USB Stack v4.1.1\Source\Device\app\common\kinetis" for device, and modify derivative.h as  below: 2. Macro definition changes in MK60F12.h, MCU_MK60F12 is defined instead of MCU_MK70F12, so in this step we will have to change some code snippet related with MCU_MK70F12. Firstly search MCU_MK70F12 in the project, for example , in the Host demo USB_MSD project based on IAR, you may do that as below: and you may find some macro like "#ifdef MCU_MK70F12" or "#ifndef MCU_MK70F12", and change them as below: #ifdef MCU_MK70F12 ----> #if (defined MCU_MK60F12) || (defined MCU_MK70F12) #ifndef MCU_MK70F12 ----> #if (!defined MCU_MK60F12) && (!defined MCU_MK70F12) 3. IO driver modification. Since TWR-K70F120 has almost the same hardware as TWR-K60F120, there is no need to change the driver code after replacing the header file, except the serial port driver, referring to USB_MSD demo, the serial driver is in sci_kinetis.c, TWR-K70F120M uses PTE16 and PTE17(UART2) as the console, while TWR-K60F120M use PTE8 and PTE9(UART5) instead, so you have to change the driver as below to make printf work properly. void sci2_init(){ #if (defined MCU_MK60F12) || (defined MCU_MK70F12)     register uint_16 sbr, brfa;     uint_8 temp; #ifdef MCU_MK70F12     /* Enable the UART2_TXD function on PTD3 */     PORTE_PCR16 = PORT_PCR_MUX(0x3); // UART is alt3 function for this pin     /* Enable the UART2_RXD function on PTD2 */     PORTE_PCR17 = PORT_PCR_MUX(0x3); // UART is alt3 function for this pin     /* Enable the clock  */     SIM_SCGC4 |= SIM_SCGC4_UART2_MASK;     /* Make sure that the transmitter and receiver are disabled while we      * change settings.      */     UART_C2_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) &= ~(UART_C2_TE_MASK | UART_C2_RE_MASK);     /* Configure the UART for 8-bit mode, no parity */     UART_C1_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) = 0;    /* We need all default settings, so entire register is cleared */     /* Calculate baud settings */     sbr = (uint_16)((SYSCLK*1000)/(UART_BAUDRATE * 16));     /* Save off the current value of the UARTx_BDH except for the SBR field */     temp = UART_BDH_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) & ~(UART_BDH_SBR(0x1F));     UART_BDH_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) = temp |  UART_BDH_SBR(((sbr & 0x1F00) >> 8));     UART_BDL_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) = (uint_8)(sbr & UART_BDL_SBR_MASK);     /* Determine if a fractional divider is needed to get closer to the baud rate */     brfa = (((SYSCLK*32000)/(UART_BAUDRATE * 16)) - (sbr * 32));     /* Save off the current value of the UARTx_C4 register except for the BRFA field */     temp = UART_C4_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) & ~(UART_C4_BRFA(0x1F));     UART_C4_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) = temp |  UART_C4_BRFA(brfa);       /* Enable receiver and transmitter */     UART_C2_REG(UART2_BASE_PTR) |= (UART_C2_TE_MASK    | UART_C2_RE_MASK); #else   //MCU_MK60F12         /* Enable the UART2_TXD function on PTE8 */     PORTE_PCR8 = PORT_PCR_MUX(0x3); // UART is alt3 function for this pin     /* Enable the UART2_RXD function on PTE9 */     PORTE_PCR9 = PORT_PCR_MUX(0x3); // UART is alt3 function for this pin                /* Enable the clock  */     SIM_SCGC1 |= SIM_SCGC1_UART5_MASK;     /* Make sure that the transmitter and receiver are disabled while we      * change settings.      */     UART_C2_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) &= ~(UART_C2_TE_MASK | UART_C2_RE_MASK);     /* Configure the UART for 8-bit mode, no parity */     UART_C1_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) = 0;    /* We need all default settings, so entire register is cleared */     /* Calculate baud settings */     sbr = (uint_16)((SYSCLK*1000)/(UART_BAUDRATE * 16));     /* Save off the current value of the UARTx_BDH except for the SBR field */     temp = UART_BDH_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) & ~(UART_BDH_SBR(0x1F));     UART_BDH_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) = temp |  UART_BDH_SBR(((sbr & 0x1F00) >> 8));     UART_BDL_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) = (uint_8)(sbr & UART_BDL_SBR_MASK);     /* Determine if a fractional divider is needed to get closer to the baud rate */     brfa = (((SYSCLK*32000)/(UART_BAUDRATE * 16)) - (sbr * 32));     /* Save off the current value of the UARTx_C4 register except for the BRFA field */     temp = UART_C4_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) & ~(UART_C4_BRFA(0x1F));     UART_C4_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) = temp |  UART_C4_BRFA(brfa);        /* Enable receiver and transmitter */     UART_C2_REG(UART5_BASE_PTR) |= (UART_C2_TE_MASK    | UART_C2_RE_MASK); #endif        #endif } #ifdef __CC_ARM int sendchar (int ch) #else void TERMIO_PutChar (char ch) #endif { #if (!defined MCU_MK60F12) && (!defined MCU_MK70F12)     #if (defined MCU_MK20D5) || (defined MCU_MK20D7) || (defined MCU_MK40D7)         /* Wait until space is available in the FIFO */         while(!(UART1_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};                /* Send the character */         UART1_D = (uint_8)ch;       #elif(defined MCU_MK21D5)         while(!(UART2_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};                /* Send the character */         UART2_D = (uint_8)ch;       #elif(defined MCU_MKL25Z4) || (defined MCU_MKL46Z4)         /* Wait until space is available in the FIFO */         while(!(UART0_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};        /* Send the character */        UART0_D = (uint_8)ch;       #else         /* Wait until space is available in the FIFO */         while(!(UART3_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};                /* Send the character */         UART3_D = (uint_8)ch;     #endif   #else #ifdef MCU_MK70F12     /* Wait until space is available in the FIFO */     while(!(UART2_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};     /* Send the character */     UART2_D = (uint_8)ch; #else      /* Wait until space is available in the FIFO */     while(!(UART5_S1 & UART_S1_TDRE_MASK)){};     /* Send the character */     UART5_D = (uint_8)ch; #endif #endif } 4. Set the correct device type in IDE settings. For IAR, change the device family in view of project options. Now, you can start to run the USB demos on TWR-K60F120M, please note the above steps is ok for USB device stack, but USB Host stack has some code issue , as mentioned in [USB stack ver 4.1.1] a code issue in msd_mfs_generic host demo , so please fix the issue before going further. Hope that helps, Best Regards, Kan

Hello, I've created a application of USB FLASH Drive acessing the 1MB internal FLASH of K64 using the Freescale's bareboard USB Stack 5.0 software + FRDM-K64F to be used by anyone as reference. It seems to be stable, I already wrote some files on that and checked the integrity of the volume. It can be very useful for datalogger application where the equipment can store data on the MCU FLASH using a internal filesystem, and read it through PC as it was a regular USB stick. It also very much cheaper than using a external SD Card, as it only needs the MCU + a external crystal and a USB connector.The only limitation so far is that it cannot exceed the number of the erase/write cycles of the device (of course!). Please see the file attached with the USB Stack and the example on the folder "{Installation Path}\Freescale_BM_USB_Stack_v5.0\Src\example\device\msd\bm\iar\dev_msd_disk_frdmk64f". The project was wrote using IAR. Also I have attached the srec file if you don't want to build the project by yourself. Any issues, doubts or suggestions, please let me know. Denis

For Remote Control means, that is needed two computers - Server Computer and User Computer, which will be in connection. There are two types of connection, which can be used - HTTP or DCOM. There are two different ways how to set up the remote control in Windows. I made the tutorial, which describes both types of Remote Control. Ok - so, let´s start! HTTP Settings On the Server Computer side: 1. Plug the board to the Server Computer 2. Go to Remote Communication Server 3. Set HTTP connection and choose the right COM Port according the plugged board If the plugged board is on e.g. COM23, it is possible to edit number of Port in Device Manager On the User PC side: 1. Open FreeMASTER,  go to Project -> Options 2. Choose Plug-in Module: FreeMASTER CommPlugin for Remote Server (HTTP) and type the IP address of the server, do not forget join to IP address :8080 3. And start communication by STOP button to successful connection DCOM Settings On the Server Computer side: 1. Plug board to the Server Computer 2. Launch DCOM in FreeMASTER Remote Server Choose COM according plugged board or edit COM according to step 2 - Server Computer in HTTP Connection (up). 3. Setting permissions for the user, User PC. Right click on Computer -> Manage. In Computer Management click to Distributed COM Users. In Distributed COM Users Properties add the user, User Computer. After that, set the permissions in Component Services. In cmd type dcomcnfg.exe In Component Services go to Computers -> My Computer -> DCOM Config -> MCB FreeMASTER Remote Server Application Right click on MCB FreeMASTER Remote Server Application and go to Properties. In Security Tab is possible to add the permissions. There are 3 types of permissions. First permission - Launch and Activation Permissions. There are 4 permission options. Local Launch and Remote Launch means, that user, User Computer can launch e.g. FM Remote Server Application. But for success communication is needed allowing Local Activation and Remote Activation. Second permission - Access Permissions. Click to Edit and Allow Local Access and Remote Access for the user. Do not forget that if there is a change of permissions, specifically allowing, it is necessary for User to log out and log in. On the User Computer side: 1. Open Freemaster, go to Project -> Options 2. Choose Plug-in Module: FreeMASTER CommPlugin for Remote Server (DCOM) and for filling Connect string is possible to use Configure. Definitely, type the IP address of the server and ;Port Name. 3. And start communication by STOP button in FreeMASTER to successful connection And now.. you can do anything 🙂

The USB OTG module in Kinetis parts uses a Buffer Descriptor Table (BDT) in system memory to manage USB endpoint communications, the BDT is a a 512-byte buffer and there are 3 registers in USB module to contain the base address for it, and it must be 512-byte aligned otherwise there would be issue during transfer. In USB stack ver 4.1.1, some Kinetis old parts like K60N512, K20D72M have the demo project basked on CodeWarrior ARM compiler, and in khci_kinetis.c, bdt is defined as following: #define _BDT_RESERVED_SECTION_ #if(defined _BDT_RESERVED_SECTION_) #ifdef __CWCC__ #pragma define_section usb_bdt ".usb_bdt" RW __declspec(usb_bdt) uint_8_ptr bdt; but since the base address is defined as below: #define BDT_BASE               ((uint_32*)(bdt)) so the bdt definition is not correct , and we have to change it as below: #define _BDT_RESERVED_SECTION_ #if(defined _BDT_RESERVED_SECTION_) #ifdef __CWCC__ #pragma define_section usb_bdt ".usb_bdt" RW __declspec(usb_bdt) uint_8 bdt[512];//uint_8_ptr bdt; and the definition for usb_dbt section can be found in MK20X256_flash.lcf. with above modification, we can make the demo of "msd_mfs_generic" work well as expected.

   Android Open Accessory support allows external USB hardware (an Android USB accessory) to interact with an Android-powered device in a special accessory mode. When an Android-powered powered device is in accessory mode, the connected accessory acts as the USB host (powers the bus and enumerates devices) and the Android-powered device acts in the USB accessory role. This ADK library is based on Freescale Kinetis KL26 MCU, It implements some functions to communicate with android phone.

In this document we are going to see how to use the attached code which implements the configuration of the FRDM-KL25 board as a USB HOST interfacing with a Numeric Keyboard and a 16x2 LCD. The project is compiled in the CodeWarrior IDE using Processor Expert and the Components to support the USB module of the USB Stack 4.1.1. How to add the Processor Expert USB components. The instructions to install the USB components to use them with Processor Expert are in the documentation of the USB Stack 4.1.1; here you can see the steps as well: Download the USB Stack 4.1.1 from the Freescale’s Website (USB Stack 4.1.1) Run the .exe file and install it in the default location. Open CodeWarrior and select Import Components in the Processor Expert button in menu bar. An Open windows will pop up, there you need to go to the path: <install folder>\Freescale USB Stack v4.1.1\ProcessorExpert\Components. To have the complete components and support for the USB module add each PEupd file repeating this step. Close CodeWarrior and open it again to ensure correct installation of the components. Check that the new components are available in the Components Library. About this Project. This project is based in the example code for Processor Expert in the USB Stack 4.1.1 USB_HID_MOUSE_HOST_MKL25Z128_PEx which implements the use of the FRDM-BOARD KL25 and a HID Mouse Device to interface with. In this project the HID Device is a Numeric Keyboard and the HOST Device (FRDM-KL25) is handling the data and printing them in a 16x2 LCD used in 8 bits mode (The LCDHTA component used here was created by Erich Styger; find the component an all the information about it here: http://mcuoneclipse.com/2012/12/22/hd44780-2x16-character-display-for-kinetis-and-freedom-board/ and say Thank you Erich: “Thank you Erich”). Here you can find a video of the implementation of this application: HID HOST WITH FRDM-KL25 The hardware components are: FRMD-KL25 Rev.E Adafruit Prototype Shield v.5 LCD JHD-162A Numeric USB Keyboard (Product Name: Numpad i110, Model No. GK-100010) USB _host Inside the project you can see there is a folder called USB_Host an it contains two important folders with source files: App_keyboard: Contains the specific function for the Keyboard configuration: in use, attached detached, callbacks and more; contain how to handle the data coming from the device. The function process_kdb_buffer is where the data is transmitted to the LCD and use it for the application. Classes: contain the necessary function to handle a hid as the device. Handle all the functions necessary for the USB protocol. Note: The usb_classes.c and usb_classes.h files are generated by processor expert. I attach these two files as well to have a reference how these files must look like. This is because sometimes during the code generation process Processor Expert erases part of the code. I hope this project is useful for you. Best Regards, Adrian.

Hi, I have a project created by Processor Expert and CodeWarrior 10.2 for TWR-K20 demo kit. Becasue I have some problem to use the Processor Expert USB HID Keyboard Host of the USB stack 4.1.1, I need to change to add the non-PE USB HID Keyboard Host into the project. Can anyone tell me how to do it? It will be very appreciated to give me a simple 'PE' example project, and add the non-PE USB HID keyboard host stack. Thank you! Stanley
