Structure

Ernie updates are stored in a packet format.

Packet Header

Any update packet has a common header structure.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x1 Type (ex: 1, 2, 0x10, 0x20)
0x1 0x1 Header Size (ex: 0x10, 0x18)
0x2 0x2 Size (ex: 0, 0x400, 0x800)

Packet size varies depending on the hardware revision of Syscon:

Renesas 78K0R/Kx3: 0x800
Renesas 78K0R/Kx3-L: 0x400
Renesas RL78/G13: 0x400

Packet Types

0x01
