Re: post if u have any good tutorials on How to writeBootLoa

It is hard to find a generic tutorial for a boot loader. I have been teaching porting for few years now and each case is a stand alone case. The simplest boot loader can be summarized in the following steps:

1. Jump to Reset handler
2. Disable critical I/O as watchdog and interrupts
3. Setup interrupt vector table
4. Initialize stacks
5. Initialize memory controller
6. Initialize RAM
7. Jump to C Code initialization
8. Initialize clock
9. Initialize I/O ports
10. Initialize devices
11. Initialize OS or jump to your application

I can share ARM9 booting code if you are interested.

Hi

See STM32 application note on ST site they have application note & source code for boot loader

Also TI on MSP430 have several application on boot loader

And Atmel site see application note for bootloader

All the best
