How to change DCF STCU configuration
Introduction
The SPC58 family integrates a dedicated safety module to configure, control and execute
self-test operations. This module is called Self-Test Control Unit (STCU2).
The user can configure the STCU2 in two ways. The first way uses the standard register
access from user application. The second way exploits the Device Configuration Format
(DCF) records.
This document explains the correct procedure to update a STCU configuration which has
been already set by the specific DCF records in UTest memory. It focuses only on the
second way to configure the STCU.
As a prerequisite the reader should be familiar with the functionality of STCU2, DCF, SSCM
and UTest flash. For any details on these topics, refer to the reference manual.

    How STCU2 configuration can be updated TN1239 How STCU2 configuration can be updated As explained in the previous chapter, simply writing a second STCU configuration at different location does not cause any change in the configuration that the STCU loads, such as the first one.

  • Page 6: Limitation And Prerequisites

    Limitation and prerequisites TN1239 Limitation and prerequisites These invalidation keys are effective only if unlock keys are aligned at 128 bits, otherwise the ECC must be computed explicitly for given data. The user adopts the invalidation keys only in case valid unlock keys are saved in UTest and a new configuration is applied.
  • Page 7: Conclusion

    TN1239 Conclusion Conclusion The update of STCU2 configuration is possible even if there are strict rules which the user must consider. If the user follows these rules this is no a risky operation. In addition, change of STCU2 configuration is an exceptional state which occurs mainly during developing phase and not in final application.
