Application NoteAnalog
ADuC70xx Serial Download Protocol
Details the UART serial download protocol for ADuC70xx MicroConverters, enabling in-circuit programming and firmware updates for on-chip Flash memory without external hardware.
Overview
This application note describes the serial download protocol used by the Analog Devices ADuC70xx family of MicroConverters, including the ADuC702x, ADuC7060, and ADuC7061. It explains how to enter serial download mode by pulling the BM pin low during power-on or reset, initiating an on-chip loader. The document outlines the UART physical interface requirements, baud rate synchronization, and the specific data transport packet format consisting of start IDs, command functions, 32-bit addresses, and checksums. Key supported operations include erasing pages, writing data to Flash/EE memory, verifying programmed code, setting memory protection, and executing remote run commands.
Use Cases
- In-circuit reprogramming of microcontrollers soldered to target systems
- Field firmware upgrades via serial port access
- Implementing custom host software for device programming
- Managing on-chip Flash/EE memory protection and erasure
