# 3. (Optional) Pad to flash sector size (e.g., 4 KB) dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$((4096 - $(stat -c%s app.bin) % 4096)) \ >> app.bin
# 1️⃣ Compile - name: Build firmware run: | make clean all arm-none-eabi-objcopy -O binary build/app.elf build/app.bin x6512 flash file
# Optionally convert to .x65 x65wrap -i backup.bin -o backup.x65 | Method | Typical Tools | Steps | |--------|---------------|-------| | Standalone ISP programmer | XFlashProg , FlashCatUSB , Segger J-Link (with flash driver) | 1. Connect programmer to the SPI pins (CS, SCK, MOSI, MISO). 2. Load .bin / .x65 in the GUI or CLI. 3. Verify/Erase/Program. | | Bootloader‑based update | XBootloader (UART, USB, CAN), custom bootloader firmware | 1. Put device in bootloader mode (e.g., pull BOOT0 low, send “0x55” over UART). 2. Transfer the flash file using XModem/YMODEM or a custom protocol. 3. Bootloader validates CRC and flashes. | | In‑system (via MCU) | HAL HAL_FLASH_Program() , X6512_Prog() API | 1. Load the binary into RAM (e.g., via UART). 2. Call the flash‑write routine sector‑by‑sector. 3. Optionally verify with HAL_FLASH_Program() return status. | Example: Flashing via XFlashProg (CLI) # Erase the entire chip first xflashprog -p /dev/ttyUSB0 erase Verify/Erase/Program
Typical causes: wrong vector table address, missing reset handler, or watchdog not cleared early enough. Verify that the first word of the image contains the correct initial SP and that the second word points to a valid Reset_Handler . 10.
