py_aduc_upload

Python interface to the serial uploader for Analog Devices (ADuC70xx)[https://www.analog.com/en/products/aduc7020.html] family of devices.

This includes the popular ADuC-7020 chip as found in development boards like the (Olimex ADUC-H7020)[https://www.olimex.com/Products/ARM/AnalogDevices/ADuC-H7020/] and (Analog Devices EVAL-ADUC7020)[https://www.analog.com/en/design-center/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/EVAL-ADUC7020.html] as well as in many popular embedded devices.

Consider it a more useable, more universal, form of the official ARMWSD-UART.exe program.

Status

• generally working (verified on Olimex ADUC-H7020)
• unit tests are a disaster

Installation instructions

1. requres python and the pyserial and intelhex libraries, so do something like pip install pyserial intelhex
2. run the python file from the command line or import it into your own python script (see below)

General useage

From your python script:

  ac=AducConnection('COM1')
  if ac.upload('myprogram.hex'):
    ac.run()

Or use the shortcut function:

  upload('myprogram.hex','COM1',andRun=True)

Naturally, there is a command line as well:

And, yes, it has help info:

  py_aduc_upload.py --help
