New in Tiny Multi Bootloader+ (formerly Tiny Avr/Pic Bootloader+) 0.7.1 Beta (Jul 23, 2013)

  • PIC32MX3xx_to_7xx Firmware:
  • release of a USB CDC (RS232 emulation with USB) version of the firmware for USB capable devices. Beware this version is very huge (24kB) if compared to UART version (4kB). With full compiler optimizations, it can be 16kB. As at startup virtual COM will be available for only 1 second, the best way to get its number is to use [Search COM] in "Tiny AVR/PIC Bootloader+" and look at the new COM that has appeared.
  • PC Software:
  • Drag & Drop allowed. If in the objects put on the application's window they are ".hex" or ".eep" (EEPROM for AVR) files then:
  • add the first one to "listHexFiles" list view and select it
  • write it to the device
  • added in debug tab, displaying of raw data during communication with a device.
  • can select if flash program memory must be programmed or not in the device (allow to write only EEPROM)
  • modifications in "config.ini" to keep trace if flash program memory must be written or not. !!! previous version of "config.ini" file is no more compatible with "Tiny AVR/PIC Bootloader+ v0.7.1" (you just have to erase it, it will be created automatically the next time you'll use "Tiny PIC Bootloader+")!!!
  • can open EEP (EEPROM file for AVR) or HEX files. If EEP file is chosen, the program will try to search the corresponding HEX file.
  • bug fix: .EEP file wrongly displayed when "show hex file during transfert" is checked

New in Tiny Multi Bootloader+ (formerly Tiny Avr/Pic Bootloader+) 0.7.0.2 Beta (Jul 23, 2013)

  • PC Software:
  • bug fix: for PIC18 family, if there are "User ID" bytes in hex file they will be discarded (not written) instead of displaying "Error: hex file too large, writing bootloader firmware!!!".
  • bug fix: when in "Debug" tab "Show answer during [Check Device]" is checked, now display answer even when only 1 byte is received.
  • now [Check Device] is not stopped by a not opened COM (could be useful if COM is only available during the test but not at its start) * modifications in "piccodes.ini" relative to changed firmware.

  • Look at "Tested devices" doc/web page for a complete listing.
  • modification of all PIC18 firmwares for EEPROM write compatibility with "Tiny Pic Bootloader+" >= v0.6.5 (unlike original version, works even if EEPROM > 256 bytes).
  • previous firmwares of PIC18 devices aren't compatible with "Tiny PIC Bootloader+" EEPROM write !!!
  • If you don't need EEPROM write, then old PIC18 firmwares can still be used with "Tiny Pic Bootloader+" >= v0.6.5
  • CFG write code commented in all PIC18 firmwares, because it's not planned to use it with "Tiny Pic Bootloader+" and with modifications for EEPROM write some firmwares get bigger than 100 words.
  • Errors were corrected in some PIC18 firmwares. Now, all PIC18 "asm" sources were tested and compile flawlessly.
  • PC Software:
  • modifications in "transfertHexToArray" to handle some PIC12 and PIC16 with Configuration words at 0x8007 and not at 0x2007.
  • added EEPROM write for normal (e.g. PIC16F874A, PIC16F886, etc) and enhanced (e.g. PIC12F1840, PIC16F1823, etc) midrange families.
  • added EEPROM write for PIC18 family (unlike original version, works even if EEPROM > 256 bytes).
  • previous firmwares of PIC18 devices aren't compatible with "Tiny PIC Bootloader+" EEPROM write
  • you must use PIC18 firmwares' sources from the archive of "Tiny Pic Bootloader+" >= v0.6.5) !!!

  • modification of "piccodes.ini" for the many new midrange devices added.

New in Tiny Multi Bootloader+ (formerly Tiny Avr/Pic Bootloader+) 0.6.4 Beta (May 8, 2013)

  • command line: added COMnum and baudrate.
  • syntax: tinypicbootloader+.exe "c:\folder 1\folder etc\file name.hex" [COMx [BaudRate]]
  • If 'COMx' or 'BaudRate' aren't passed in arguments, the previuos option used in the GUI (stored in the "config.ini" file) will be used.
  • Examples: tinypicbootloader+.exe "c:\test file.hex" COM8 9600
  • tinypicbootloader+.exe "c:\test file.hex" com8
  • tinypicbootloader+.exe "c:\test file.hex"
  • RS232 power supply (based on Dan's idea and schematic): DTR and RTS can be used to power the PIC device directly with RS232 port (only during programming!!!). These options are in the debug tab.
  • Schematic for use this capacity is given in "Tiny PIC Bootloader +" web site
  • Note: As the PIC device is only powered during programming, then it works as automatic reset.
  • modifications in "config.ini" to keep trace of DTR/RTS powering.
  • previous version of "config.ini" file is no more compatible with "Tiny PIC Bootloader+ v0.6.4" (you just have to erase it, it will be created automaticaly the next time you'll use "Tiny PIC Bootloader+").

  • 'jump to bootloader' modification for ".hex" files generated by mikroC32.
  • PIC323xx_to_7xx Firmware:
  • bug fix: now erase program flash AND BOOT FLASH, as with PIC32: writing data on a non erased address will write a random value (if writed data is different from the stored one, if it's the same then write is OK)

New in Tiny Multi Bootloader+ (formerly Tiny Avr/Pic Bootloader+) 0.6 Beta (Apr 12, 2013)

  • PC Software:
  • PIC323xx_to_7xx family (with normal ".ld" OR with special ".ld" for boot programs of Microchip HID Bootloader) (firmware must be >= v0.6)
  • warning if size of hex to program can overwrite bootloader program (i.e. > (maxMemPos - bootloader size))
  • bug fix: can transfer more than 64KB
  • changed in "piccodesIniFile" and "configIniFile" path initialisation '\' to '/' for linux-mono portage compatibility
  • PIC323xx_to_7xx Firmware:
  • place bootloader at the end of the flash program memory
  • work with normal ".ld" file and with special ".ld" file used for Microchip HID Bootloader
