Possibily to Flash Internal Flash from RT1064 via Ethernet

[markus_winkhoef]

Hello Guys,

i have another question regarding the RT1064 MCU.

In our old project we use an old ST microcontroller and we have written an own bottloader for this device, which allows us to update the device via Ethernet.

For example i get some data via the Ethernet interface and write it into the Internal Flash.

Is that possbile?

I have searched the datasheet according to this topic to find the sectors of the internal flash, but i didn't find it.

Maybe someone of you has some tips for me.

I hope that this possiblity is still available for our new project with the NXP controller.

Best regards,

Markus

Hi Markus

See https://www.utasker.com/iMX/RT1064.html for a reference for loading new code via i.MX RT 1064 web server (or FTP server) to internal flash and uploading firmware.

The uTasker boot loader concept - including all typical loader requirements (as well as loader updates over the air when needed) and OTA support in plain-code or encrypted code forms is shown here: https://www.utasker.com/docs/iMX/Loader.pdf

The concept supports i.MX RT 1010, 1015, 1020, 1050, 1060 and 1064 with a single code (no different libraries for different parts needed) which allows full simulation of the chips and the complete operation.
It can be used for code that runs in ITC (most efficient) or for code that operates using XiP in QSPI flash and can also be used by any application (the application doesn't need to be built with uTaster) so can be used by Teensy 4.0 Arduino, NXP SDK and other libraries too (the application however needs to accept the new code if not using the integrated web server method).

Serial loader methods included: https://www.utasker.com/docs/uTasker/uTaskerSerialLoader.pdf
