Get the files ufconv.py and uf2families.json from the micropython/tools directory, +e.g. at https://github.com/micropython/micropython/tree/master/tools. + +2. Get the NXP program sdphost for your operating system, e.g. from +https://github.com/adafruit/tinyuf2/tree/master/ports/mimxrt10xx/sdphost. +You can also get them from the NXP web sites. + +3. Get the UF2 boot-loader package https://github.com/adafruit/tinyuf2/releases/download/0.9.0/tinyuf2-imxrt1010_evk-0.9.0.zip +and extract the file tinyuf2-imxrt1010_evk-0.9.0.bin. + +Now you have all files at hand that you will need for updating. + +1. Get the firmware you want to upload from the MicroPython download page. + +2. Push and hold the "Boot" button, then press "Reset", and release both buttons. + +3. Run the commands: + +``` +sudo ./sdphost -u 0x1fc9,0x0145 -- write-file 0x20206400 tinyuf2-imxrt1010_evk-0.9.0.bin +sudo ./sdphost -u 0x1fc9,0x0145 -- jump-address 0x20207000 +``` +Wait until a drive icon appears on the computer (or mount it explicitly), and then run: +``` +python3 uf2conv.py <firmware_xx.yy.zz.hex> --base 0x60000400 -f 0x4fb2d5bd +``` +You can put all of that in a script. Just add a short wait before the 3rd command to let the drive connect. + +4. Once the upload is finished, push Reset again. + +Using sudo is Linux specific.
