SATELLITE BOARD BOOT CODE Release Notes: ---------------------------------------- SAT Boot v1.04 12-Nov-1999 LWIL\RHIN ------------------------------------ - Added new DF1 binary download protcol. ("bload xxxx" commands) Use the new 'bload.exe' win32 utility with this binary download protocol. - SAT Boot code has been re-written to fit the FW1 (larger) MON/printf code stream model. - This version of _SAT_Boot firmware was built using the following baseline components: Baseline Build #1434 built: Nov. 29, 1999 376: 1.46 19-Nov-1999 ERR: 1.08 23-Nov-1999 URT: 1.13 26-Nov-1999 MON: 1.42 25-Nov-1999 UTL: 1.28 16-Nov-1999 - This version of _SAT_Boot firmware uses the (unfinished) _376_Bbr Version 1.00 SAT Boot v1.03 15-Oct-1999 LWIL ------------------------------- - Fixed QSPI setup for the GENINE board. Now supports GENINE Rev B boards. - Now supports the new 'generic' 68376 BBR code module instead of the previous assembler BBR stub. - Built against Baseline 1401. - Uses SMN (Small Monitor) Subsystem v1.05 - The BMM Rom binary image (Satbmm.Bin) uses the generic 68376 BBR code version 1.00. SAT Boot v1.02 06-Aug-1999 LWIL\RHIN ------------------------------------ - Added support for PDB Rev. 'B' hardware board. - Added support for GENINE I/O board. - This boot code has only been tested on PDB Rev. 'A', and ALICE boards. The PDB Rev. 'B' and GENINE boards do not yet exist. - Does not yet drive the CAN bus. SAT Boot v1.01 07-Jun-1999 LWIL ------------------------------- - Removed hard-coded boardtype setting to ALICE. Should now work/detect the PDB board. - Does not yet drive the CAN bus. SAT Boot v1.00 04-May-1999 LWIL ------------------------------- - The first 'real' version of the SAT boot code for both ALICE and PDB boards. Not yet tested, as the h/w does not yet exist. - Does not yet drive the CAN bus. - Does NOT run on the ICE boards at all. SAT Boot v1.01 13-Apr-1999 LWIL ------------------------------- - Fixed timeout problem in binary download. Now times out after 10 seconds. Note that the very first download character still has no timeout on it. - Changed binary download code, to not erase the flash sector containing the FW Directory untill after a successfull download has completed. This fixes problems when a binary download is aborted, and the FW DIR table is left empty. - Only runs on ICE boards, Rev 'A' and 'Rev 'B'. SAT Boot v1.00 05-Mar-99 LWIL ----------------------------- - First version of Satellite Boot code, only runs on ICE boards, Rev 'A' and 'Rev 'B'. - Does not yet drive the CAN bus.
