RTL8710BN 1. Introduction This document illustrates how to build Realtek low power Wi‐Fi software under IAR SDK environment. 2. How to get IAR IAR provides an IDE environment for code building, downloading, and debugging. Please check “IAR Embedded Workbench” on http://www.iar.com/, and trail version is available. 3. Ameba‐Z Hardware Configuration Hardware block diagram is shown in Figure 3‐1 Hardware block diagram. The block USB UART is used to supply power and catch logs, UART baud is 115200. SWD means J‐Link SWD interface, when it is connected to J‐Link Adapter correctly, you can download images to Ameba‐Z from IAR flash downloader. Reset button is used to reset Ameba‐Z to run firmware after IAR completes downloading. Figure 3‐1 Hardware block diagram The Dupont Line diagram between J‐Link Adapter and Ameba‐Z SWD is as follows: 2017‐12‐26 3 ... -

RTL8710BN After firmware download, click Reset button to reboot the system. 4.3 IAR debug To debug or trace code step by step, click Project Download and Debug or press one of the two buttons in the IAR menu. Upper left corner of the toolbar shows step by step tracking tools. 2017‐12‐26 10 ... - Page 11 RTL8710BN How to set Break point is shown as follows: By the way, ROM code and Boot loader code is provided by means of the symbol list tables, rom_symbol_v01_iar.icf and bootloader_symbol.icf. You can find it in project\realtek_amebaz_va0_example\EWARM‐RELEASE. So if you are tracking to the function which is running in the ROM or boot loader area, the source code can’t be located. 2017‐12‐26 11 ...

Page 13: Image Tool Download
RTL8710BN 5. Image tool download Please reference AN0112 Realtek Ameba‐Z Image Tool user manual.doc.pdf for details. Assuming that the Image Tool on PC is Server, which sends images files to Ameba‐Z (Client) through UART. Client or Server, whichever starts first will be ok. Steps on Ameba‐Z Step 1: For QFN32, pins marked with “1”on the figure should be connected by jumper cap. For QFN48 & QFN68, pins marked with “2”shouldbe connected by jumper cap. Step 2: Push the Image Download Button and keep it pressed. Step 3: Power on the board or press the Reset Button. Now Ameba‐Z goes into UART DOWNLOAD mode. Step 4: Finally release the Image Download Button. Now the client is ready for receiving data. Figure 5‐1 AmebaZ DEV Steps on image tool Step 1: Select serial port. The default baud rate is 1.5Mbps. Step 2: Select transmission baud rate Step 3: Open serial port Step 4: Check the images to be transferred Step 5: Select and load images files by browsing which are generated by IAR project. Step 6: Input image addresses. The address which starts with 0x08 is for flash, and 0x10 for RAM. Step 7: Push Download button to start. Now the server is ready to send data. 2017‐12‐26 13 ... -
