ST10 Configuration in UART BSL (RS232 or K-Line)
When the ST10F276 enters BSL mode on UART, the configuration shown in Table 30 is
automatically set (values that deviate from the normal reset values are marked in bold).

1. In Bootstrap modes (standard or alternate) ROMEN, bit 10 of SYSCON, is always set regardless of EA pin
level. BYTDIS, bit 9 of SYSCON, is set according to data bus width selection via Port0 configuration.
2. BUSCON0 is initialized with 0000h, external bus disabled, if pin EA is high during reset. If pin EA is low
during reset, BUSACT0, bit 10, and ALECTL0, bit 9, are set enabling the external bus with lengthened ALE
signal. BTYP field, bit 7 and 6, is set according to Port0 configuration.
Other than after a normal reset, the watchdog timer is disabled, so the bootstrap loading
sequence is not time limited. Pin TxD0 is configured as output, so the ST10F276 can return
the acknowledge byte. Even if the internal IFLASH is enabled, a code cannot be executed
from it.
Loading the start-up code
After sending the acknowledge byte, the BSL enters a loop to receive 32 bytes via ASC0.
These bytes are stored sequentially into locations 00’FA40H through 00’FA5FH of the IRAM,
allowing up to 16 instructions to be placed into the RAM area. To execute the loaded code
the BSL then jumps to location 00’FA40H, that is, the first loaded instruction. The bootstrap
loading sequence is now terminated; however, the ST10F276 remains in BSL mode. The
initially loaded routine will most probably load additional code or data, as an average
application is likely to require substantially more than 16 instructions. This second receive
loop may directly use the pre-initialized interface ASC0 to receive data and store it in
arbitrary user-defined locations.
This second level of loaded code may be
● the final application code
● another, more sophisticated, loader routine that adds a transmission protocol to
enhance the integrity of the loaded code or data
● a code sequence to change the system configuration and enable the bus interface to
store the received data into external memory
