Topic: "Generic" RT5350 Module Help

The content of this topic has been archived on 30 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I have a generic RT5350 module that has a EM63A165 (16MB RAM) and a W25Q64FV (8MB) Flash.  The system has UBOOT installed, so I can start by loading a .bin from TFTP to RAM.

(It also has a linux kernel installed, but as near as I can tell the console is (literally!) in chinese once it starts, LOL)

Is there a pre-built BIN available that I could load into RAM to try?  (One that won't try to write the flash, at least not at first, since I'm afraid to corrupt the UBOOT...)

Thanks!

This is the boot sequence:

Please choose the operation:
   1: Load system code to SDRAM via TFTP.
   2: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP.
   3: Boot system code via Flash (default).
   4: Entr boot command line interface.
   7: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via Serial.
   9: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP.                                       0

3: System Boot system code via Flash.
