Soft Device 5.2.0, GCC and MacOS X

[Robert Taylor]

With Soft Device 5.1.0 I generated the binaries from the hex by doing:

arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --remove-section .sec1 --remove-section .sec2 s110_nrf51822_5.1.0_softdevice.hex s110_nrf51822_5.1.0_softdevice_uicr.bin arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --remove-section .sec3 s110_nrf51822_5.1.0_softdevice.hex s110_nrf51822_5.1.0_softdevice_mainpart.bin

When I do this with Soft Device 5.2.0 the uicr binary is 20B and the BLE stack doesn't work. When I substitute the uicr binary generated from 5.1.0 it does work though.

Is this a problem or am I doing something stupid?

Thanks, Robert

Hi Robert,

try with : arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --remove-section .sec3 $SOFTDEVICE softdevice.bin

arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --only-section .sec3 $SOFTDEVICE uicr.bin

with $SOFTDEVICE = path to S110 hex file

-c

Hi,

Thanks for your help. I tried your suggestion and the uicr bin is still only 20B. It should be 32B shouldn't it?

I tried: arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --remove-section .sec3 s110_nrf51822_5.2.0_softdevice.hex s110_nrf51822_5.2.0_softdevice_mainpart.bin

arm-none-eabi-objcopy -Iihex -Obinary --only-section .sec3 s110_nrf51822_5.2.0_softdevice.hex s110_nrf51822_5.2.0_softdevice_uicr.bin

Thanks, Robert
