I have a piece of MC68360 based equipment which requires boot block
reloading via the BDM port.
The procedure calls for running some software (which I have) on a PC,
downloading via the parallel port using a P&E Micro "cable16/32" (which
I do not have). Are all BDM downloaders pin for pin functionally
compatible ?. There seem to be 4 options other than the P&E : A 5 chip
public domain DIY unit on the Freescale site , a 2 chip (HC76 and
HC132) unit, a single chip GAL based unit and the MacCraigor "Wiggler".
Are any of these units directly compatible with the P&E ?. I am not
able to hack into the supplied software. Something that concerns me is
that the PD GAL based unit uses entirely different parallel port
connections to the other two PD units. The Macraigor unit appears to
have a lot more than the standard 10 output pins.
cheers
