Raspberry PI STM32 UART Bootloader

This node module facilitates flashing an STM32 over the built in UART bootloader.

The STM32 has a built in bootloader which can be accessed by setting the following
BOOT1 and BOOT0 pins. "Main Flash Memory" is where your program typically resides.
"System Memory" is where STM32's built in bootloaders reside.

| BOOT1 | BOOT0 | Boot Mode |
|:-----:|:-----:|-------------------|
| x | 0 | Main Flash Memory |
| 0 | 1 | System Memory |
| 1 | 1 | Embedded SRAM |

This module will toggle these pins (BOOT0 and BOOT1) along with the reset pin and UART
to flash the STM32.

On the Raspberry Pi 3 yo get better baud rate results you will probably want to remap the
physical UART away from the bluetooth and back to the UART pins. To do this add the following
line to your /boot/config.txt file.

``
dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt
`

The following example has been tested to flash the STM32F103RBT6 on the STM32F103 Nucleo board.
You'll need to make the following connections.

| Pi | STM32 |
|-----:|------------------|
| 8 | UART RX PA10 |
| 10 | UART TX PA9 |
| 11 | RESET |
| 13 | BOOT0 |
| | BOOT1/PB2 -> GND |

You will also need to disable the built in Nucleo reset by removing the jumper on SB12 or
replacing it with a weak pull up resistor (10K should work).

var wpi = require('wiring-pi');

var fs = require('fs');
var path = require('path');

async function flash() {

const bootloader = new STM32UARTBootloader({

});
await bootloader.init();

const data = fs.readFileSync(path.join(__dirname, 'blink.bin'));
await bootloader.flash(0x08000000, data);
console.log('done');
}

flash();
