5.1.1 Hardware Setup

Set up the device correctly to be able to communicate with the host PC running the UART flash programmer.

  1. The first thing to do is make sure the boot mode select pins are configured properly to boot the device to UART boot mode.
  2. Next, connect the appropriate UART boot loader GPIO pins to the Rx and Tx pins that are connected to the host PC serial port. A transceiver is often needed to convert a Virtual serial port from the PC to GPIO pins that can connect to the device. On some systems, like the controlSOM, an FTDI chip is used to interface the GPIO pins for UART communication to a USB Virtual serial port. Refer to the device-specific user's guide for the controlSOM to get information on the switch configuration needed to enable UART communication.
  3. After the hardware is set up correctly to communicate with the host, reset the device. This is to boot the device to UART boot mode.
