linux bootloader for CY8C5268AXI-LP047

[rahulbhagat8]

we are currently working in the healthcare industry. We are using the CY8C5268AXI-LP047 microcontroller in our Product for the last 3 years.  Now we are planning to add an OTA feature for the MCU.

Here is the detail of the system:

CY8C5268AXI-LP047  is connected with a Linux-based system through USB it received the hexadecimal commands from the Linux through USB and based on the commands it performs the serval task. We have a working code to upgrade(program) the firmware into MCU through USB with the help of PSOC(bootloader) but as our system is having a Linux operating system we are not able to flash the firmware remotely or over the air.

Please let us know if is there any way to flash the firmware code remotely/over the air on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

Hi,

Cypress do not have linux based bootloader host tool. You may make use of PSoC Creator Bootloader Host tool using Virtual Box. We have tested PSoC Creator 4.1 in Oracle VM VirtualBox running Windows 10 with Ubuntu 15 Linux.
