Hallo all,

How do I program the NOR Flash on the STM3210E-Eval board from my IAR platform?

I'm experimenting with the STM3210E-EVAL demonstration firmware (UM0549) and accidentally deleted the contents of the NOR Flash. Any ideas how to get it back?

Thanks

Did you make a backup copy? Keil and IAR probably have applets from programming NOR regions, or could build ones, Segger has a J-Flash tool for their J-Link devices.

Wouldn't you just download the demo software, and blow in the NOR image with DfuSe?

Hallo Clive,

Thanks for this and I do apologise for my delayed reply. Please allow me two more questions:

Using DfuSe: I have read the App note UM0549. In Section 3.1 (Programming the M29W128 NOR Flash memory) it says:

... Load the DFU firmware project using your preferred Toolchain and load the DFU image using JTAG for the first time...

Which DFU project? I have found one in the example area of the IAR environment but unfortunately the software won't run on the STM3210-EVAL board.

There is an IAR example ''STM3210E-EVAL_Demo'', it includes the two configurations ''Debug'' and ''Debug_NOR_update''. Why can't I blow the NOR flash using the second option? What have I done wrong?

Thanks for shedding light on this
