# Adafruit Bluefruit nRF52 Bootloader
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains the bootloader for Adafruit nRF52 series and other popular boards
|
||||
This is a CDC/DFU/UF2 bootloader for Adafruit nRF52 boards and Nordic development boards.

[adafruit-nrfutil](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_nRF52_nrfutil), modified version of [Nordic nrfutil](https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfutil), is required to perform DFU. Install python3 to your system if it is not installed already and run this command to install adafruit-nrfutil from PyPi:
|
||||
UF2 is an easy-to-use bootloader that appears as a flash drive. You can just copy `.uf2`-format
|
||||
application images to the flash drive to load new firmware.
|
||||
See https://github.com/Microsoft/uf2 and https://github.com/adafruit/uf2-samdx1
|
||||
for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
$ pip3 install --user adafruit-nrfutil

a modified version of [Nordic nrfutil](https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-nrfutil),
|

This repository depends on following submodule
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ pip3 install --user adafruit-nrfutil
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This repository depends on the following submodules:
|
||||
|
||||
- [tinyusb](https://github.com/hathach/tinyusb/tree/develop)
|
||||
- [nrfx](https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nrfx)
|
||||
|
||||
Get the code with following command:
|
||||
Note that `tinyusb` also includes `nrfx` as a submodule, so you need
|
||||
to initialize and update submodules with the `--recursive`` flag.
|
||||
|
||||

## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- DFU over Serial and OTA ( Application, Bootloader+SD )
|
||||
- Self-upgradble via Serial and OTA
|
||||
- DFU using USB Flashing Format a.k.a [UF2](https://github.com/Microsoft/uf2) (Applicatoin only)
|
||||
- Auto enter DFU briefly on startup for DTR auto-reset trick (832 only)
|
||||
- DFU over Serial and OTA ( application, Bootloader+SD )
|
||||
- Self-upgradable via Serial and OTA
|
||||
- DFU using UF2 (https://github.com/Microsoft/uf2) (application only)
|
||||
- Auto-enter DFU briefly on startup for DTR auto-reset trick (832 only)
|
||||
|
||||
## How to use
|
||||
|
||||
There are 2 pins **DFU & FRST** that bootloader will check upon reset/power
|
||||
There are two pins, `DFU` and `FRST` that bootloader will check upon reset/power:
|
||||
|
||||
- `Double Reset` Reset twice within 500 ms will enter DFU with UF2 and CDC support (only works with nRF52840)
|
||||
- `DFU = Low and FRST = High` Enter DFU with UF2 and CDC support
|
||||
- `DFU = Low and FRST = Low` Enter DFU with OTA, can be upgraded with mobile application such as Nordic nrfConnect/Toolbox
|
||||
- `DFU = High and FRST = Low` Factory Reset mode, erase firmware application and its data
|
||||
- `DFU = High and FRST = High` Goto application code if it is present, otherwise enter DFU with UF2
|
||||
- Depending on value of the `GPREGRET` register, Bootloader can enter any of above mode (plus a CDC only mode for Arduino). `GPREGRET` is set by application before performing a softreset.
|
||||
- `DFU = LOW` and `FRST = HIGH`: Enter bootloader with UF2 and CDC support
|
||||
- `DFU = LOW` and `FRST = LOW`: Enter bootloader with OTA, to upgrade with a mobile application such as Nordic nrfConnect/Toolbox
|
||||
- `DFU = HIGH and `FRST = LOW`: Factory Reset mode: erase firmware application and its data
|
||||
- `DFU = HIGH and `FRST = HIGH`: Go to application code if it is present, otherwise enter DFU with UF2
|
||||
- The `GPREGRET` register can also be set to force the bootloader can enter any of above modes (plus a CDC-only mode for Arduino).
|
||||
`GPREGRET` is set by the application before performing a soft reset.
|
||||
|
||||
For the exact pin location, please check your board definition for details
|
||||
On the Nordic PCA10056 DK board, `DFU` is connected to **Button1**, and `FRST` is connected to **Button2**.
|
||||
So holding down **Button1** while clicking **RESET** will put the board into USB bootloader mode, with UF2 and CDC support.
|
||||
Holding down **Button2** while clicking **RESE**T will put the board into OTA (over-the-air) bootloader mode.
|
||||
|
||||
For other boards, please check the board definition for details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Burn & Upgrade with pre-built binaries
|
||||
|
||||
You can burn and/or upgrade bootloader with either jlink or dfu (serial) to a specific pre-built binary version without the hassle to install toolchain and compile the code. This is preferred if you are not developing/customizing the bootloader

```
|
||||
make BOARD=feather_nrf52840_express VERSION=6.1.0r0 flash
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To upgrade with dfu serial
|
||||
|
||||
$ make BOARD=feather_nrf52840_express VERSION=6.1.0r0 dfu-flash
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can run following command for the list of pre-builtin binaries
|
||||
Pre-builtin binaries are in the `bin` directory:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ls bin/*
|
||||

|
||||
2.0.1 5.0.0 6.1.0r0

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Note: bootloader is downgradable, since the binary release is merged of bootloader and Softdevice, you could freely "upgrade" to any version you like.

Note: The bootloader can be downgraded. Since the binary release is a merged version of
|

of both bootloader and the Nordic SoftDevice, you can freely upgrade/downgrade to any version you like.

## How to compile and build

|

You should only continue if you are looking to develop bootloader for your own. Having a jlink to **de-brick** your device is a must.
