This document describes how to build the FPGA bitstream, including the
firmware, and get this programmed onto the flash of the Tillitis Key 1
2022-09-19 06:51:11 +00:00
USB device.
The Tillitis Key 1 kit includes:
2022-09-19 06:51:11 +00:00
- Tillitis Key 1 USB device, marked MTA1-USB V1
2022-09-19 06:51:11 +00:00
- Programmer board based on Raspberry Pi Pico, with a white device
holder/jig
- USB-cable with micro-B plug, for connecting the programmer to
computer
- USB-C cable
- USB-C to USB-A adapter
# Programming FPGA bitstream and firmware onto Tillitis Key 1
2022-09-19 06:51:11 +00:00
Connect the programmer to the computer using the mentioned cable. It
is convenient to connect the USB device to the USB-C cable, and then
connect the cable to the computer. The latter using the USB-C-to-A, if
needed.
`lsusb` should list two new devies: `cafe:4004 Blinkinlabs ICE40 programmer`
and `1207:8887 Tillitis MTA1-USB-V1`.
The USB device is then placed correctly in the programming jig, and
the hatch closed. The USB device can remain in the jig during repeated
programming and testing cycles. The jig has a cutout to allow for
touching next to the LED where the touch sensor is located.
To install the software needed for building and programming, please
refer to [toolchain_setup.md](toolchain_setup.md).
You are now ready to generate the FPGA bitstream including the standard
firmware, and program the flash on the connected USB device. This should be run
as your regular non-root user, but the the programming is done (in the
Makefile) with `sudo tillitis-iceprog` (so sudo is expected be set up).
```
$ git clone https://github.com/tillitis/tillitis-key1
$ cd tillitis-key1/hw/application_fpga
$ make prog_flash
```
After programming, when your device is connected to the host, it would boot the
firmware. When boot has completed, the device will start flashing the LED
white. This indicates that the device is ready to receive and measure an app.
# Device personalization
To personalize the device, you need to modify the hex file that contains the
Unique Device Secret (UDS). You should also update the Unique Device Identity
(UDI). These hex files are located in `hw/application_fpga/data/`. Note that
after modify the files in this directory, you need to rebuild and program the
device again (as above).
To make this easier there is a tool that can generate these files. The tool can
be found in `hw/application_fpga/tools/tpt`. The tool allow you to supply a
secret used as part of the UDS generation. The tool can be run interactively,
or by suppling inputs on the command line:
```
usage: tpt.py [-h] [-v] [--uss USS] [--vid VID] [--pid PID] [--rev REV] [--serial SERIAL]
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Verbose operation
--uss USS User supplied secret
--vid VID Vendor id (0 - 65535)
--pid PID Product id (0 - 2555
--rev REV Revision number (0 - 15)
--serial SERIAL Serial number (0 - (2**31 - 1))
```
