Hi, Sir/Ms.,

Hardware: CYW20706 + UART_HCI_Interface + SPI Flash

The application code: xxx.hex

Now I want to download my application code into SPI Flash. Can you tell me what tools I need, including the software and programmer.

Thanks.

Hi, Anjana,

Thank you for your quick response,

I have one more question for you:

Here I mean I want to download my application code into the extra SPI Flash, not ROM of CYW20706.

Based on you answer, MiniProg4, or CyBluetool can help me to finish the task, right?

Thanks,

只是好奇:你为什么要把application code download到外部的SPI Flash(具体什么型号Flash?)呢?

你不知道吗?赶紧看看CYW20706的芯片手册,你很快就会明白的。

Hi, Anjana,

I tried to download the application code with CyBluetool but it reports lots of errors to me.

Can you tell me how I should solve these errors?

Thanks,

hello @szchen2006 

Seems like the file paths are not valid. 

I think you can use Cypress programmer https://www.cypress.com/products/psoc-programming-solutions . It is more easy. You just need to provide hex file.

Hi, Anjana,

I have no MiniProg4 in my hands.

Can you tell me other ways to solve this.

Thanks,

Hi, Anjana,

I have one question for you: can I use CYW920706WCDEVAL to program the extra FLASH?

Thanks,

HI @szchen2006 

For programming the CYW20706 device from a PC application, you may need USB-UART bridge converter setup. 

If you don't have the setup, then you can use the 20706 EVAL board same on 20706 EVAL. For that you may have to tape out wires from HCI UART header on the eval board and use it with the HCI UART pins on your custom board. Header connections can be checked on EVAL board ( https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/evaluation-boards/cyw920706wcdeval/ )
