Description: STC MCU ISP flash tool
stcgal is a command line flash programming tool for STC MCU Ltd. 8051
compatible microcontrollers. The name was inspired by avrdude.
.
STC microcontrollers have a UART based boot strap loader (BSL). It
utilizes a packet-based protocol to flash the code memory and
IAP memory over a serial link. This is referred to as in-system
programming (ISP). The BSL is also used to configure various
(fuse-like) device options. Unfortunately, this protocol is not
publicly documented and STC only provide a (crude) Windows GUI
application for programming.
.
stcgal is a full-featured Open Source replacement for STC's Windows
software; it supports a wide range of MCUs, it is very portable and
suitable for automation.
