Commands and blocks:
The template files have block commands and operation
commands. The block commands start with two substract
signs "--" and the operation are betwin dollar signs "$".
The block commands mark the excecution of a block and the
end of the block must be identifyed with the instruction
"--END".
Internal variables:
The next internal variables are provided wich can be used
indicating their name betwin dollars signs "$" or modified
if a value is assigned using parentesis signs.
Ex.: $ADDRESS(0x00)$ asigns this variable the value 0x0000.
$ADDRESS$ :
Accumulator useful at the time of incrementing a memory address.
$STEP$ :
Value on wich $ADDRESS$ variable will be incremented.
$BSIZEB$ :
Amount of bytes of the bitstream file.
$BSIZEB2$ :
2 * amount of bytes of the bitstream file.
$BSIZE$ :
Amount of bits of the bitstream file.
Note: BSIZE an STEP are related. BSIZE is the size of the cache
used to store the data before flashing the device. Each memory
address contains some bits that's a word, the STEP is the size of
the cache in words. So BSIZE=STEP*word_size.
For the XC18V: 32*64=2048 o 32*128=4096.
$MSIZE$ :
Taken from the msize field from the device definition in the
DEVICES file.
It contains the last memory position of a device with memory.
$ID$ :
Taken from the id field from the device definition in the DEVICES
file.
It contains the IDCODE of the selected device.
$IDMASK$ :
Taken from the idmask field from the device definition in the
DEVICE file.
It contains the mask wich be used in the comprobation of the IDCODE
Block commands:
--LITERAL START :
It indicate that in the output file must be copied the content
of this block until the end is found "as is".
If an operational command is found inside it is excecuted.
--REPEAT START :
It indicate that this block will be repeated until the end of
the bitfile is reached.
This block must have inside some operational command wich
reads information from the input bitfile, if not, the end of
this will never be reached and the progran will keep
repeating this block until there is no more disk space.
With each block iteration the variable $ADDRESS$ is
incremented by $STEP$.
--REPEAT UNTIL value :
It indicates that this block will be repeated until the
variable $ADDRESS$ reach the value passed as parameter.
With each block iteration the variable $ADDRESS$ is
incremented by $STEP$.
The value passwd as parameter must be $STEP$ multiplo,
or the exit condition will never be reached and the
program will keep repeating this block until there is
no more disk space.
Instead of value you can use a variable:
Ej.: --REPEAT UNTIL MSIZE
--END :
It indicates the end of a LITERAL, REPEAT or REPEAT UNTIL block.
Opeation commands:
The operation commands may recive as an argment the name of
a variable instead of a constant:
Ej.: $FILL(0xFF,BSIZE)$
$DATA(ndatabytes)$ :
Writes in the output file a ndatabytes amount of bytes
from the input bitfile expressed in hex.
$DATA_INV(ndatabytes)$ :
Writes in the output fila a ndatabytes amount of bytes
from the input bitfile inverting the order, expressed
in hex.
$FILL(VAL,TIMES)$ :
Writes TIMES times the value VAL expressed in hex in the
output file.
$REWIND$ :
Rewinds the bitfile to the first stream byte so it can be used in a
new block.
