SAM RWW EEPROM Emulator Unit Test

Overview:

Introduction

This unit test carries out tests for the RWW EEPROM Emulator service.

It consists of test cases for the following functionalities:

  • Test for RWW EEPROM emulator initialization.
  • Test for RWW EEPROM emulator buffer read/write functionality.
  • Test for RWW EEPROM emulator page read/write functionality.

The following kit is required for carrying out the test:

  • SAM L21 Xplained Pro board
  • SAM L22 Xplained Pro board
  • SAM C21 Xplained Pro board
  • SAM DA1 Xplained Pro board
  • SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro board

Setup

The following connections has to be made using wires:

  • None

To run the test:

  • Connect the SAM Xplained Pro board to the computer using a micro USB cable.
  • Open the virtual COM port in a terminal application.
    Note
    The USB composite firmware running on the Embedded Debugger (EDBG) will enumerate as debugger, virtual COM port and EDBG data gateway.
  • Build the project, program the target and run the application. The terminal shows the results of the unit test.

Usage

  • The unit test first initializes the EEPROM emulator and formats the memory if not previously done.
  • The test writes a buffer of data to arbitrary offset and reads back and compares
  • The test then writes a page of data to a page and reads back and compares

Compilation Info

This software was written for the GNU GCC and IAR for ARM. Other compilers may or may not work.
