On-Board Programming Modes
• Boot mode
1. Initial state
The flash memory is in the erased state when the
device is shipped. The description here applies to
the case where the old program version or data
is being rewritten. The user should prepare the
programming control program and new
application program beforehand in the host.

3. Flash memory initialization
The erase program in the boot program area (in
RAM) is executed, and the flash memory is
initialized (to H'FF). In boot mode, entire flash
memory erasure is performed, without regard to
blocks.

2. Programming control program transfer
When boot mode is entered, the boot program in
the H8/3062F-ZTAT or H8/3062F-ZTAT R-mask
version (originally incorporated in the chip) is
started, an SCI communication check is carried
out, and the boot program required for flash
memory erasing is automatically transferred to
the RAM boot program area.

4. Writing new application program
The programming control program transferred
from the host to RAM by SCI communication is
executed, and the new application program in the
host is written into the flash memory.
