This is a fork of https://github.com/triffid/LPC17xx-DFU-Bootloader
Supports Bigtreetech SKR 1.3, SKR 1.4 and SKR 1.4 TURBO with the same binary.
By default the SD card (SPI 1) on the SKR as well as the SD card on a connected display board (SPI 0) (if connected) may be used for updating the firmware.
As in the original code a file named "firmware.bin" on the FAT32-formatted SD card's first partition will be flashed to the application region (0x4000 after the 16k space for the bootloader), and after successful flashing, the file will be renamed to "firmware.cur" - 'cur' meaning 'current'.
In addition, Flash via USB is enabled as default. It will be activated:
- if no firmware is installed (Flash @16K = 0xffffffff)
- if the button on a connected display board (e.g. BTT LCD-35 or RepRapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller) is pressed while booting. (pin 2 of EXP1 = 0.28 connected to GND).
Press the button on the display board or connect EXP1 pin 2 to ground, then press reset. After about 2 seconds you should see the device, e.g. with lsusb:
ad@e5w ~]$ lsusb

Bus 001 Device 072: ID 1d50:6015 OpenMoko, Inc. Smoothieboard
Firmware can than be uploaded via dfu-util, e.g.
sudo dfu-util --download firmware.bin
dfu-util 0.9

EXP1 pin 1 (1.30) will be configured as output and set to 0 to avoid endless beeping of the beeper on a connected RepRapDiscount Full Graphic Smart Controller.
I tried it with a serial connection first but somehow that did not worked for me. I got the "Synced.." message after sending ? but most other characters send were echo'ed differently. Seens to be some baudrate problem, gave up after several hours of probing.
Using a ST-Link V2 clone with openocd worked fine.
Install openocd and connect the ST-Link with 3 wires (btt powered via USB or 12/24V) as follows:
ST-Link BTT
----------------------------
SWDIO SWDIO (J2 Pin 2)
SWCLK SWDCLK (J2 Pin 4)
GND GND (J2 Pin 3) or some other GND pin, e.g. middle pin of one endswitch connector
and run make upload or start the writebootloader script in bttskr/.
You can backup your current bootboader or the whole flash using the scripts readbootloader or readflash.
By default, the bootloader will show status/debug messages via the serial port @115200 baud. You can configure these as well as disableing USB, disabling the second SD card and so on in config.h.
I managed to destroy the SD card slot on my 1.4 board and while trying to solder a new one, i destroyed some pads on the board. Insead of using another board i now use the SD card slot on the display board for firmware uploads.
