I Recently got a piece of APM32F103VC MINI development board and found that it has a very rich peripheral resources, the main frequency can reach 96Mhz after a period of study. Recently, the IAP (In Application Programming) function has been used in the project, so we evaluate the IAP implementation of APM32F103.
In-Application Programming (IAP) is a programming mode applied to Flash program memory. It can read/write to another program Flash space by calling a specific IAP program under the normal operation of the application, and can even control the read/write operation of a segment, a page or even a byte, which brings greater flexibility to the field upgrade of data storage and firmware.
Then, we mentioned that the program jump run is to modify the PC pointer to our APP program, and then modify our interrupt vector register so that our APP program can correctly interrupt.
In this chapter, we will review the basics of Flash programming in the third part of IAP implementation.
1 、Why program Flash?As we all know, the Flash of MCU saves our program. In general, we program the Flash of MCU through our recorder or simulator when we produce or debug. In this process, we do not need to pay attention to the programming process of Flash, and only need to complete the programming operation of Flash through tools.
Why do IAP need to care about Flash programming? Because a key factor of IAP is able to program the content of our APP area through BootLoader.
Namely, we need to implement Flash MCU programming operations.
2 、Flash programming processIn the manual of APM32F103, we can see that Flash programming is divided into four steps: unlocking, erasing, programming and locking. Next we take a step by step look at what we need to do.
Flash is the place where our program is stored, and the need to program FLash must be “certain”, not “temporary”. So it involves more cumbersome “unlock” steps in case our important program content is changed.
The standard library functions for APM32F1 are as follows:
/*!
* [url=home.php?mod=space&uid=247401]@brief[/url] Unlocks the FMC Program Erase Controller
*
* @param None
*
* @retval None
*/
void FMC_Unlock(void)
{
FMC->KEY = 0x45670123;
FMC->KEY = 0xCDEF89AB;
}
/*!
* [url=home.php?mod=space&uid=247401]@brief[/url] Locks the FMC Program Erase Controller.
*
* @param None
*
* @retval None
*/
void FMC_Lock(void)
{
FMC->CTRL2_B.LOCK = BIT_SET;
}2.2 Flash erasure
Due to the Flash features of APM32F1, address content written by Flash data must be 0xFFFF. For example, we want to draw a wonderful picture on a piece of paper, then our paper must be blank, so as not to be affected by paper stains on us.
That for APM32F1 Flash, 0xFFFF is “blank”, this state we can enjoy “writing”.
The Flash erase operation is to turn Flash back to “blank”.
Erase is divided into “total erase” and “page erase”. If we use the “total erase”, our BootLoader program will also be erased because our BootLoader is also stored in Flash, making the MCU “blank”. Therefore, we will use “page erase” to complete the erase operation of the APP storage area.
The standard library functions for APM32F1 are as follows:
/*!
* @brief Erases a specified FMC page.
*
* @param pageAddr: The page address to be erased.
*
* @retval Returns the flash state.It can be one of value:
* [url=home.php?mod=space&uid=2817080]@ARG[/url] FMC_STATUS_BUSY
* [url=home.php?mod=space&uid=2817080]@ARG[/url] FMC_STATUS_ERROR_PG
* @arg FMC_STATUS_ERROR_WRP
* @arg FMC_STATUS_COMPLETE
* @arg FMC_STATUS_TIMEOUT

status = FMC_WaitForLastOperation(0x000B0000);

}After completing the Flash programming of the target area, we generally need to check whether the actual content we write to Flash is consistent with our expected content.
We can check through direct reading and comparsion or CRC check. There are various methods of verification, but they are inseparable from Flash reading. Flash APM32F1 read is relatively simple, which you can directly use the address pointer to read the contents of the corresponding address directly.

data = *(__IOM uint32_t *)address;
