wireless bootloader

Started by Thomas May 5, 2005
I guess I should of asked this question first but as anyone
sucessfully sent a srec file over a wireless link? my DSP is going to
be enclosed and I do not want to have to take it apart every time I
modify the DSP code. eventually I'll probably just flash with jtag
when firmware is finished but as of now its a pain because the board
is inside the robot. I'm currently using bluetooth wireless radios
which should be fast enough but I know there is a huge (occasional)
lag time between bursts. so far when i tried it i got checksum error,
and timeout error.

Thanks,
Thomas


Yes, I agree with Georg. Maybe you can take a look at Freescales Zigbee solution for the wireless link:

Subject: AW: [motoroladsp] wireless bootloader My suggestion would be to use some kind of serial transmission and a customised boot loader
- flashing over wireless link through JTAG seems to be a bit too complicated for me.
