Hello Ping,

The i.MXRT1024 EVK SDK for MCUXpresso IDE does have a flashloader example. You may install the SDK from inside MCUXpresso IDE or download the SDK from the following website:

https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/en/select

Once you have imported this example, you may find a readme under the doc folder with some information about how to use it.

I hope that this helps!

Thanks for reply, Gustavo

I probably ask wrong question, I am looking for mfgTool for RT1024, basically looking for factory manufacturer tool for RT1024. Several month ago, I got it after downloaded Flashloader_RT1064.zip, I wonder whether there is a equivalent one for RT1024? or does it apply to all RTs? Basically, looking for ma

Hello Ping,

I haven’t seen the manufacturer tool been updated for more i.MXRT devices, but I would recommend checking the MCU Boot Flasher (link below) as it allows you to download an image to the i.MXRT board by using the Serial Downloader mode.

I hope that this information helps!

The MCU_BootUtility/Flasher  connects with EVK_RT1064, but it doesn't connect to my EVK_RT1024. It doesn't power up from the USB OTG from day new, I am not sure why. But if I power it from Debug USB, it connect to NXP Secure Provision Tool.

Is the Tool suitable for manufacturer?

Regards!

Hello Ping,

The manufacturing tool is available as part of the i.MXRT1024 SDK. You may find it on the following path:

<SDK> \middleware\mcu-boot\bin\Tools\mfgtools-rel\

If you download the SDK from the MCUXpresso builder, please make sure to add the MCU-Boot middleware.

Found the tool, followed instructions, downloaded blhost and put it like this here:

blhost unzipped

However, the elftosb tool is not included in the middleware, so I copied it from flashloader RT1064, and use following command to make .ivt_flashloader.bin  : 

> elftosb.exe -f imx -V -c imx-dtcm-unsigned.bd -o flashloader.bin evkmimxrt1024_flashloader.srec

it ends up two .bins and I renamed first one as ivt_flashloader.bin and put it under \Profiles\MXRT102X\OS Firmware\

Also renamed iLed_Blink.bin as boot_image.bin and put it same folder as above - it is compiled with XIP header. Now I got following error message when I try MfgTool2.exe :

"Boot" body="BootStrap" error, file="D:\WORK\NXP1024Projects\RT1024EVK_mcu-boot\bin\Tools\mfgtools-rel\Profiles\MXRT102X\OS Firmware\ivt_flashloader.bin"

looks like something wrong with the ivt_flashloader.bin?

Could help please?

Regards! sorry so many details to read.
