INSTALLING THE LATEST ISEB FIRMWARE 

The latest ISEB firmware is included on the installation CD. To 
successfully use the ISEB evaluation hardware, this firmware 
must be flashed to the ISEB controller. The installation CD 
contains the firmware itself and the utility that allows you to flash a 
new version of the firmware onto the ISEB microcontroller. In 
addition, as new firmware is made available, it can be downloaded 
from the Analog Devices website (

www.analog.com

). 

To flash the ISEB microcontroller, follow these steps: 
1.

 

Ensure that the ISEB is connected to and detected by the 
PC. The COM port on which the device is recognized must 
also be obtained, as mentioned in the COM Port Verification 
section.  

2.

 

Run the 

ARMWSD.exe

 program located in the 

/ISEB_USB/FW/

 folder; it displays information about the 

downloader, as shown in Figure 8.
