4.1 Hardware Setup

The SBL communicates with the ROM bootloader over a serial COM port on the PC. If a built-in COM port is not available, a USB-to-serial interface can act as a virtual COM port.

Figure 4-2 demonstrates two different ways to connect the PC to the device: one is using a level shifter to convert the UART signal from RS232 to TTL signals and the other is using a USB-to-UART bridge similar to what is used on the SmartRF06EB [4].
