Re: [OpenOCD-devel] How to program Kinetis with OpenOCD on windows?

[Thomas V. <to...@on...>]

Hi Paul,

Thanks for responding.  I downloaded the windows binary from gnutoolchains.com/arm-eabi/openocd, don't see a README.Windows or any other readme files that had install instructions in it. I did google for it and did find it.  The instructions were mostly regarding building from source and installing USB drivers.

I really apologize if I'm asking stupid questions... but what do I do once it is installed/compiled? All I really want to do is load the flash in some Kinetis parts.  A pointer to some more detailed instructions would be really, really appreciated.

I tried the Segger J-Link Edu device, but couldn't get that to work with Kinetis IDE.  Things would crash or it would say it was programmed, but didn't.  Apparently need to buy the more expensive version and then the fairly expensive programming software JLink Flash.  I have a couple of the OpenOCD devices from Olimex that I purchased for some other project that didn't go anywhere, so I was hoping I could put them to some use.  Would really appreciate the help.

Thank you in advance!

-Tom

Please check the README.Windows , install WinUSB driver as suggested, and OpenOCD should just work. For production programming you should be able to use "program" command.

What exactly is your question, what doesn't work?
