S32K3 MCU Firmware Updates Guidance

[MateoSegura]

Hello,

I am currently trying to develop a Firmware Update solution for the S32K344 MCU. I don't see any examples or guidance as to how to perform a firmware update over CAN or Ethernet. There's a video explaining it, but no code examples!

My questions are:

1. Are there any GUI tools to help partition the flash memory for such updates? If not, how is this done?

2. examples, examples ,examples, PLEASE!!!!

Any guidance or documentation or any type of resource would be much appreciated.

NXP engineers: there's no point on providing software training that has no examples! It's 2022 guys, your hardware support is phenomenal, your software support is a**. 

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

short update - the release is little bit delayed due to small SW issue which should be solved soon. It is expected that it will be released next week.

Hi,

S32K3 is a new device and a lot of work is still ongoing. We will provide Unified Bootloader Framework but it is not available yet. I'm checking about expected release date - I will let you know later.

Thanks,

Hi,

I got the response right now (sorry, delayed due to vacation) - new version will support MagniV, S32K1 and S32K3 devices and the plan is to release it before end of Feb. Hope this helps.

I do get the Unified Bootloader V2(Unified bootloader Demo - NXP Community), it fit the RTD for S32K3xx, but it is still not fit the RTD for S32K1xx. My project of S32k144 is based on the RTD, so I wonder that what should I do to fit the bootloader?

[KILLERzheng]

Is the new bootloader fit for the S32K144 RTD (not driver) platform? My project APP is based on RTD platform, I could not modify the *.ld file to fit the released unified bootloader based on driver
