How to combine hex file of bootloader and application into one hex file?

[Hank Im]

Hello​.

I have got a bootloader and application that both work separately.

I want to combine from both file to one hex file using SPC5studio.

Is there any option and setting in SPC5studio?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

Don't know if it helps or not I have flashed both application code and bootloader onto the micro-controller but on a different series(STM32f405). I used st link utility for flashing the code and keep in mind to change the address where the bootloader and application code has to be flashed. Also make sure to set the linker script ROM address to appropriate value. I have used the TrueStudio IDE for the same as well.

Intel HEX files can typically be merged in a text editor by losing the terminal record of the first file, and appending all the data from the second.

Tools like srecord should be able to merge/combine also, and the format is pretty trivial in any case.​

See if SRecord can help you.

Hello ,

Have you tried to import SPC58ECxx_RLA Bootloader Application for Discovery ?

Anyway , you have to create your own linker file (user.ld) at the root of your project.
