3.7.2.2 Serial Programming (Using External Device) of RL78

The serial programming mode of RL78 allows for firmware updates by using the RL78 microcontroller and an external device (a microcontroller or ASIC) connected to a UART. Processing to write data to or delete data from the RL78 microcontroller by using an external device is performed on-board. Off-board writing is not possible. Table 3-13 shows a comparison of the programming mode between MSPM0 and RL78 device families.

Table 3-13 Programming Mode Comparison
Programming Features RL78 MSPM0
Type Serial programming using external device Bootstrap loader
Security Memory security and access restriction options (1) Secure boot options: CRC protections
Customizable No Yes, configurable invoke pin and plug-in feature
Invoke methods TOOL0 pin high after reset release 1 pin high at BOOTRST, SW entry
Command Erase, Write, Getting information, Security, and so forth. (1) Connection, Unlock, Erase, Write, Memory read back, Factory Reset, Get info, and so forth.
Password protection No Yes
Interfaces supported Dedicated UART UART, I2C, SPI (Custom plug-in needed), Can (Plug-in planned)
(1) The block erase, write commands, and rewriting boot cluster are enable by the default setting. Disabling block erase, disabling write and disabling rewriting boot cluster can be performed using the Security Set command.

In addition, RL78 devices supports a self-programming mode that can be used to rewrite the Flash memory via a user program. Because this mode allows a user application to rewrite the flash memory by using the RL78 microcontroller self-programming library.
