rpipdi

Program Atmel XMEGA chips from a Raspberry Pi 2 or newer via the PDI protocol. This code uses GPIO pins and realtime priority to enable PDI programming on the Pi. See the original software for more information: https://github.com/DiUS/xmega-pdi-pi2

Features

• Chip erase
• Program application & boot areas
• Read & write fuses
• Read & write EEPROM
• Read & write user row
• Dump memory to screen
• Read and write intel HEX files
• Configurable GPIO selection
• Configurable memory address and size
• Device auto detection
• CRC checking
• Make no changes on CRC match

Usage

Usage: ./rpipdi [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS:
  -a [ADDRESS]     Manually set base address (default=0x00800000)
  -s [SIZE]        Manually set memory size
  -m [MEMORY]      Set memory type, base address and size by name
  -i [DEVICE]      Manually select device
  -c [PIN]         Set GPIO pin to use as PDI_CLK
  -d [PIN]         Set GPIO pin to use as PDI_DATA
  -D               Dump memory
  -e               Erase the selected memory one page at a time.
  -E               Erase entire chip, except for the user signature row
  -w [FILE.HEX]    Write Intel HEX file to FLASH
  -r [FILE.HEX]    Read Intel HEX file from FLASH
  -f [FUSE=VALUE]  Write a fuse or lock bit
  -x               Make no changes if chip and HEX file CRCs match
  -q               Print less information
  -h               Show this help and exit

MEMORY:
  flash    App & boot sections
  app      App section of FLASH
  boot     Boot section of FLASH
  eeprom   EEPROM base address
  prod     Production signature row
  user     User signature row
  fuse     Fuse base address
  lock     Lock bits base address
  io       Mapped I/O base address

All addresses are in the PDI address space. See the xmega datasheets.

Examples

Note, rpidpi currently must be run as root as it uses /dev/mem to access GPIO.

Erase chip and write FLASH

sudo ./rpipdi -c 27 -d 23 -E -w firmware.hex

Dump fuse bytes to screen

sudo ./rpipdi -c 24 -d 21 -D -m fuse

Erase chip, write FLASH and fuse byte if CRC does not match

sudo ./rpipdi -c 27 -d 23 -E -f 2=0xbe -w firmware.hex -x

Erase user row

sudo ./rpipdi -c 27 -d 23 -m user -e

Print the boot section CRC

sudo ./rpipdi -c 27 -d 23 -m boot -x
