SWD programming using a RaspberryPi

I previously write this post on how to use a BeagleBoneBlack as a JTAG (SWD) programmer. It was fun but really slow. I port my code on RaspberryPI and now what was taken 5-8 hours is a couple of minutes.

To connect the SWD connector to the PI use the following schema

Connect SWD to RaspberryPi

I use this peace of code to reflash my TD1204 and TD1208 based both on EFM32 when bricked after unsuccessful update…

Here is the python file to interact with SWD : https://github.com/disk91/PySWD/blob/master/RpiGPIO.py

I hop it will be soon integrated in the main PySWD project as the previous one.

You should check or modify flashEFM32.py file

import array

from PirateSWD import *
from RpiGPIO import *
from SWDCommon import *

[...]

def main():
    busPirate = RpiSWD("", vreg = True)
    debugPort = DebugPort(busPirate)
    efm32     = EFM32(debugPort)

To run the Flash program, just launch

# ./flashEFM32.py ../myProgram.bin
