EasyIAP™ - Boot-Strap Loader Software 1
Introduction
EasyIAP™ is a boot-strap loader (BSL) software that enables SST
FlashFlex customers to download/upload their application software into/from the
FlashFlex flash memory via In-Application Programming (IAP) while their system is
running. Important features are: data download/upload, self-detection of the serial
connection, and automatic reset after download.
This BSL example has been pre-programmed into production revision CA or
later of the SST89C5x products and thus is ready to support downloading new user
application software, either on the production line or in the field. The source code of
the MCU firmware is provided to SST customers free of charge as a reference example so
that designers can choose to use the pre-programmed code in its original form or tailor it
to their own FlashFlex application. The MCU source code is intentionally well-documented
in order to guide designers to more easily understand the firmware example.
The Windows software provides a graphical user interface to setup the PC,
select the chip type, run an IAP function (byte read, download or sector erase), compare
data, and print or save acquired data.

Demo Software
Three demo software programs have been supplied with the EasyIAP, and the intent
here is to provide the user with some understanding of their basic functionality. Any one
of the three can be downloaded from the PC to the user platform, the Phytec Evaluation kit
or the BSL Demo Board, and executed there. For a visible presence on the demo
board/platform, each of the demo routines manipulates the board LEDs in some manner. The
source (.A51) and download (.HEX) files for each of the three demo programs can be
downloaded from SST’s website.
The file names are:
1. TWOBALL.A51/.HEX
2. BINCTR.A51/.HEX
3. PENDB.A51/.HEX

Library Files
Two MFC library files have been provided in this
package.
The file names are:
1. MFC42.DLL
2. MSVCRT.DLL
Download the MFC library files

EasyIAP Boot-Strap Loader Software Example is for the user’s reference and
