10.1 Default Checksum and PSA Calculation Used to Verify Flash Programming

The Main GUI has three values for check sum (CS) calculation for programming purposes (Figure 910.1). These values are always calculated and the type of checksum algorithm cannot be changed. These are the Source, Code, and Memory values.

10.2 Custom Checksum Setup for Verification by User Code on Boot

Custom Checksums can be generated and programmed by the flasher to be used by user firmware for code verification on boot. Up to four different CS blocks can be specified and CS results can be saved in the flash for verification. Size of each CS block and CS result location in flash are defined by the user.
The Check Sum Options dialog (Figure 910.2) is selected from following pull down menu:
Setup→ChecksumOptions

...

  • Start Address should be even, and the Stop Address should be odd. This is because data at both addresses is used inclusively.

  • CS result address in the flash should be even. Make sure that the CS result is saved outside of the code block being counted, otherwise the CS result will modify the contents of the code block itself and further verification will fail.

  • The CS result is displayed in the report window shown in Figure 910.3.

  • The type of algorithm used to calculated the CS can be selected from the following list shown in Figure 910.4. Initial value for CS calculation can be selected as zero, all 0xFFs or as the Start Address from pull down menu shown in Figure 910.5.

  • CS result can be used As Is or can be inverted as shown in Figure 910.6.

  • Data size (byte or 16 bits word) used for calculation and CS result size is displayed in the dialog screen as “Data IN word size” and “CS Result size” (Figure 910.2). Polynomial contents (if required) can be specified in the POLY edit line in HEX format ( eg. 0x1234 ).

10.2.1 Arithmetic Sum (8b/16b)


Checksum is calculated as modulo 16-bits sum of all bytes (unsigned) from Start Address to the End Address as follows:

Code Block
languagecpp
unsigned int CS = CS_initial_value;
for ( addr = StartAddress; addr <= EndAddress; addr++ )
{
  CS = CS + data[addr];
}
CS = 0xFFFF & CS;
if( cs_inverted )
  CS = 0xFFFF ^ CS;

10.2.2 Arithmetic Sum (8b/32b)


Checksum is calculated as modulo 32-bits sum of all bytes (unsigned) from Start Address to the End Address as follows:

Code Block
languagecpp
unsigned int CS = CS_initial_value;
for ( addr = StartAddress; addr <= EndAddress; addr++ )
{
  CS = CS + data[addr];
}
CS = 0xFFFFFFFF & CS;
if( cs_inverted )
  CS = 0xFFFFFFFF ^ CS;

10.2.3 Arithmetic Sum (16b/16b)


Checksum is calculated as modulo 16-bits sum of all 2-byte words (unsigned) from Start Address to the End Address as follows:

Code Block
languagecpp
unsigned int CS = CS_initial_value;
for ( addr = StartAddress; addr <= EndAddress; addr=addr+2 )
{
  CS = CS + data[addr] + data[addr+1];
}
CS = 0xFFFF & CS;
if( cs_inverted )
  CS = 0xFFFF ^ CS;

10.2.5 CRC16 (Poly 0x11201) - (8b/16b) (Named as CRCCCITT) and CRC16 defined polynomial - (8b/16b)


Checksum is calculated as CRC16 from each bytes from Start Address to the End Address as follows:

...

Code Block
languagecpp
void	CS_init_crc16_tab( unsigned short poly ) 
{
	int i, j;
	unsigned short crc, c;

	for (i=0; i<256; i++) 
	{
		crc = 0;
		c   = ((unsigned short) i) << 8;

		for (j=0; j<8; j++) 
		{
			if ( (crc ^ c) & 0x8000 ) 
				crc = ( crc << 1 ) ^ poly;
			else                      
				crc =   crc << 1;
			c = c << 1;
		}
		crc_tab32[i] = (unsigned int)(0xFFFF & crc);
