1. Product and Versions and MCUs Concerned
(1) Product and versions
Flash Development Toolkit
V.4.00 Release 00 through V.4.01 Release 01
(2) MCUs
The SuperH RISC engine, H8SX, H8S, H8, M16C, and 740 families
of MCUs
2. Problem
When Flash Development Toolkit is used in combination with the E8a
emulator, programming time (mainly spent in verification) is getting
longer and longer if user repetitively downloads the data file to the
flash.
However, programming will be done successfully since this problem only
affects the programming time.
3. Condition
This problem occurs when user repetitively downloads the data file to
the flash without closing the toolkit and the data within the data file
is not continuous but exists in some separate areas.
4. Workaround
Close Flash Development Toolkit and then invoke the toolkit to program
the data.
5. Schedule of Fixing the Problem
We plan to fix this problem in the V.4.02 Release 00 product.
