FYI on a new product for production flash programming from our third party Domain Technologies. Thanks.

To program 56F8xx flash with cBoxView (console app), no debugger supported:

PP-JTAG - $800

To program and/or debug with cBoxView, BoxView or CodeWarrior

SB-USB-LE - $2600

PP-JTAG is our version of the printer port interface found on Motorola EVM's but has a

little bit different pin usage, and has built-in serial number chip. You can find some

information at:

http://www.domaintec.com/ppjtag.html

The SB-USB is 4 times faster, and is supported with either BoxView or CodeWarrior

debuggers, but for production programming can be used also with the console

application, in the same way as PP-JTAG

http://www.domaintec.com/SBusb.html

We also have SB-56K - RS-232 based emulator (same price as SB-USB). I did not

measure flash programming, but it will be a little slower then SB-USB (still faster then

PP-JTAG).

Christian, Unfortunately, I do not know of anyone who has developed such a download
program.  If you are not interested in using a serial bootloader though, I'm
not sure of how many easy options are left that already exist that don't
require CodeWarrior.  You might be interested to take a look at Application
Note 1926/D which is entitled "Production Flash Programming" that comes
packaged on the SDK or you can find it at:

http://e-www.motorola.com/webapp/sps/library/docu_lib.jsp

Be sure to select "Digital Signal Processors", "16-bit data path",
"DSP56800", and "Application Note" when doing the documentation search.  You
can leave the "Select a Product" pulldown menu blank.

This application note might have some helpful information for you when
thinking about what you would like to do.
