56F8300 programming software

[Fduch]

Hi. Need to read out firmware from 56F8323. Can any expland what SW are used for that task?
Can I use 56800E Flash Programmer User Guide for that? 

 

[Fduch]

I have add some info for cloning MCU. You need to readout only 2 files from 568323:

1)fflash 568323_flash.cfg program flash.S -rp0x00000:0x03FFF -p0x378
2)fflash 568323_flash.cfg boot flash.S -rp0x20000:0x20FFF -p0x378


As I understand, data flash area (0x01000 0x01FFF) is not so needit

[Fduch]

Finally, SOLVED! Need to be install CodeWarrior for 56800E Digital Signal Controllers v8.3.exe + FLSHPROGRAMMER_V1.2_WIN32.exe and move to directory like here:

C:\Program Files\Freescale\FlashProgrammer v1.2\bin>fflash 568323_flash.cfg 1623

Well, here the correct CMD and what I have with yours *cfg:

C:\JtagV2>fflash 568323_flash.cfg 16230_x.S -rx0x0:0xfff -p0x378
56800E Flash Programmer v1.0
Program ran on: Mon Jul 21 13:48:18 2025
CCCSClient::Open: Connection refused

C:\JtagV2>

What version is your 56F8300 programming software, and which version of CodeWarrior is it a plug-in for? Additionally, what is your Windows OS?

I noticed there is "CCCSClient::Open: Connection refused" in the log.

It might be related to CCS; please refer to it. Windows 7/10: Using USB TAP on CodeWarrior for DSC - NXP Community

OS is Win XP. And I had not install CodeWarrior on it. Just only 56800E Flash Programmer.exe & FFLASH.exe from archive 56800E Flash Programmer User Guide. Does need to install CodeWarrior?

[Fduch]

Well, some actions:

What' wrong? 

[Celeste_Liu]

Hello, I found another 56F8323 configuration file in Codewarrior v8.3, could you please have another try?

[Fduch]

Hi again! I come back... and as I see i need flash.cfg file for that operations. But is havn't any *cfg files in 56800E Flash Programmer.exe 
Where I can get it? If to be moore exactly - flash8323.cfg 

[Fduch]

There will definitely be questions later. Need some investigations for that

Hello @Fduch ,

Thanks for your support. 

Yes, you can use 56800E Flash Programmer User Guide to read memory from 56F8323.

Please download the 56F8XXXFP software:
EVK for MC56F832x and MC56F812x DSCs | NXP Semiconductors

Then open the file 56800EFPUG and follow the steps of section “2.2.3 Viewing Memory”：

Hope it can help you.

BRs,

Celeste
