Angel Boot monitor, can be replaced?

Hello



If I have a EB40A board from atmel and accidently delete the angel debug monitor, will i be able to restore it? is the angel code available to download?


No but it's on the ARM Firmware Suite CD which was shipped with every ARM development board under the sun but probably not with your Atmel board. It shouldn't be difficult to obtain a copy though. Obviously you need a compiler.

Don't know about the Atmel boards but the ARM boards have a minmal monitor in ROM and you can reflash them using the serial port.

That CD doesn't come with the Atmel boards. Also I don't think generic code will run on them.

If you blow away Angel, you blow away the boot monitor too. JTAG hardware is required.
