Question

Large application image

I have a large application image running on the STM32F427. The image is more than 1M bytes, which make it impossible for dual-image. From ST's document, for single-image, "The user application cannot download a new firmware image: the local download procedure is the only way to update the active user code."

One solution is to download the new image to external flash or SD card, what is the problem with this solution? If it is not a good idea, and I want to download the new firmware via OTA, then I have to implement the OTA code in SBSFU project?

Or any suggestion?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Zoey,

yes this is a very good idea.

Now current version of SBSFU does not implement such case.

So, you need to develop this by yourself.

Such case one of the many cases the SBSFU development team is studying.

This will possibly be available in next release but I cannot commit on anything yet.

Best regards

Jocelyn

Thanks, Jocelyn.

Do you have a rough idea about when is the next release?
