The Lo-tech XT-CF flash utility is a simple DOS program that writes a binary input file to the ROM on the Lo-tech XT-CF Boards and Lo-tech 8-bit ROM Board, both of which use ST39SF0x0 or AMIC A29010 flash chips.
Usage
flash [image-file] [base-address]
where:
- [image-file] is the name of the binary file to load
- [base-address] is the base address of the chip, for example D000
Since the boards have 32 or 64KB available, multiple ROM binaries can be written out by appending them into a single file ensuring images are 2KB aligned; however note that the entire flash chip is erased before programming.
Sample Output
C:\>flash
Lo-tech XT-CF and 8-bit ROM Board Flash Programmer, version 1.4
Supports SST 29xE010/39SF0x0, and AMIC A29010 flash chips.
Usage:
Write an image file to the ROM. The ROM is completely
erased, then the file copied. Can be used with ROMs
between 2KB and 64KB. Note: Checksum is not calculated.
eg: flash [image-file] [base-address]
[image-file] - ROM image
[base-address] - hex ROM window base address, i.e. D000
must be A000-F800
