srec_brecord(5) 						File Formats Manual						   srec_brecord(5)

NAME

       srec_brecord - Freescale MC68EZ328 Dragonball bootstrap record format

DESCRIPTION

       This data format is understood by Freescale MC68EZ328 Dragonball series processors on their internal UART.

   Lines
       Each  line  contains  hexadecimal  data,  each  byte represented by two hexadecimal nybbles in upper case.  Characters not in this set, but
       larger than 0x30 (e.g. lower case) will be ignored, less than 0x30 (e.g. CR or LF) are considered record terminators.  Comments	are  prob-
       lematic; don't try this at home.

   Fields
       Each  line  contains  a	4-byte address (big endian), a 1-byte length-and-mode, and then data bytes as dictated by the length.  There is no
       checksum.  A zero length record is an execution start address record, non-zero length records are data.

						   +--+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+----+-----+---+
						   |1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | ... | n |
						   +--+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+----+-----+---+
						   |	       Address		  | Length |  Data   |
						   +------------------------------+--------+---------+
       The length-and-mode byte is formatted as follows:

							     +--+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
							     |7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
							     +--+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
							     |Mode  | R |      Length	    |
							     +------+---+-------------------+
       Mode    These bits are ignored by SRecord in input (00 = bytes, 01 = half words, 10 is reserved, 11 = long words).  These bits  are  always
	       zero on output by SRecord.

       R       This bit indicates a data read rather than a data write; SRecord does not accept input files with this bit set, and will not set it
	       on output.

       Length  The length of the records data bytes.  It does not include the address or length bytes.	The maximum payload  of  a  record  is	31
	       bytes of data.

   Size Multiplier
       In general, binary data will expand in sized by at least 2.35 times when represented with this format.

EXAMPLE

       Here is an example b-record format file.  It contains the data "Hello, World" to be loaded at address 0.
	      000000000D48656C6C6F2C20576F726C640A
