大家好，我是痞子衡，是正经搞技术的痞子。今天痞子衡给大家介绍的是恩智浦i.MX RTxxx系列MCU的Serial ISP模式。
在上一篇文章 Boot配置(ISP Pin, OTP) 里痞子衡为大家介绍了i.MXRTxxx Boot的行为配置，其中第1.2节里讲了Boot有三类行为模式：Serial ISP、Serial Boot、Device Boot，后两种都是跟App启动执行相关的行为模式，而Serial ISP模式则是相对独立的Flash下载功能，有了Serial ISP，便可省去专用Flash编程器，今天痞子衡就来详细聊一聊Serial ISP模式。
痞子衡在前面已经讲过Serial ISP模式是一种串行编程模式，在这种模式下，BootROM通过指定的UART/SPI/I2C/USB-HID口来接收来自Host（恩智浦提供了上位机工具blhost.exe或者MCUBootUtility）的Application数据，并将数据下载进i.MXRTxxx支持的所有外部非易失性存储器中，为后续从外部存储器启动做准备。
一、进入Serial ISP模式
i.MXRTxxx上电永远是从ROM启动去执行BootROM程序，最顶层的Boot行为模式由OTP memory里的PRIMARY_BOOT_SRC[3:0]位和芯片外部ISP[2:0]管脚状态共同决定。假设我们正处于研发阶段，PRIMARY_BOOT_SRC[3:0]并未烧写，那想进入Serial ISP模式最直接的方式便是将ISP[2:0]输入状态拨成3'b110，在设计i.MXRTxxx的硬件板时ISP[2:0] pins应设计成可通过拨码开关选择输入电平，下图是RT600-EVK板（Rev.E）的参考设计：
拨码开关SW5应拨向SW_DIP-6的6，即设置ISP[2:0]=3'b110，此时便直接进入了Serial ISP模式。
二、blhost的使用
进入了Serial ISP模式，此时便可以用恩智浦提供的host工具与BootROM进行命令交互，host工具在 MCUBootUtility包 里。下载好MCUBootUtility包之后，在\MCUBootUtility\Tools\blhost2_3\win下可以找到用于与BootROM通信的blhost.exe。
2.1 支持的通信外设pinout
BootROM支持四种通信外设，分别是UART/SPI/I2C/USB-HID（其中UART和USB比较常用），pinout如下（Pinout适用RT600）：
2.2 blhost用法
blhost.exe是命令行工具，使用blhost可以通过上述UART/SPI/I2C/USB-HID口与BootROM进行通信与命令交互。
在命令行下打开blhost.exe，输入-?命令可以看到blhost使用帮助，blhost支持的命令很多：
PS D:\NXP-MCUBootUtility\tools\blhost2_3\win> .\blhost.exe

** Note that not all commands/properties are supported on all platforms.当使用串口转USB模块连接i.MXRTxxx的Flexcomm UART0或者使用USB Cable连接上USB1口后可以看到PC设备管理器会识别出相关设备：
让我们尝试一下使用blhost与BootROM通信，先试一下USB通信:
PS D:\NXP-MCUBootUtility\tools\blhost2_3\win> .\blhost.exe -u 0x1fc9,0x0020 -- get-property 1
Inject command 'get-property' Response status = 0 (0x0) Success. Response word 1 = 1258487808 (0x4b030000) Current Version = K3.0.0
再接着试一下UART通信，似乎通信失败了。需要注意的是，当使用USB通信过一次之后，BootROM已经激活USB外设，不会再去检测其他外设（包括UART），如果想使用UART通信，需要将板子reset一次，使BootROM重回外设检测状态。
PS D:\NXP-MCUBootUtility\tools\blhost2_3\win> .\blhost.exe -p COM25 -- get-property 1
Error: Initial ping failure: No response received for ping command.
三、下载更新Application示例
因为BootROM支持启动的外部存储器很多，所以Serial ISP模式下进行Application更新操作要指定具体的外部存储器类型。在上一节blhost的命令帮助里，我们可以看到Memory ID里已经给各种外部储存器分配了ID号，在使用blhost命令时使用不同的ID号即可操作相应外部存储器。
其实BootROM里已经把外部存储器的下载更新Application操作封装得很简单也很统一，我们其实只需要3步操作即可完成Application的下载。以备份启动的1bit SPI NOR为例（即Flexcomm SPI NOR Memory，Memory ID=0x110）：
// 在SRAM里临时存储Serial EEPROM/NOR配置数据
blhost -p COMx -- fill-memory 0x1C000 0x4 0xC0300000 // Flexcomm SPI3, NOR Flash
// 使用Serial EEPROM/NOR配置数据去配置Flexcomm SPI接口
blhost -p COMx -- configure-memory 0x110 0x1C000
// 擦除Serial EEPROM/NOR并将image下载进Serial EEPROM/NOR
blhost -p COMx -- flash-erase-region 0x0 0x20000 0x110
blhost -p COMx -- write-memory 0x0 bt_image.bin 0x110其中bt_image.bin是填充了Image类型数据的Application镜像，关于上述命令的具体意义痞子衡会在后续Serial(1-bit SPI) EEPROM/NOR恢复启动的文章里详尽解释，这里只是给大家一个初步体验。
至此，恩智浦i.MX RTxxx系列MCU的Serial ISP模式痞子衡便介绍完毕了，掌声在哪里~~~
