Best practice mass production serialization

Post by lmariotti »

Hello everyone,

with different MCU that build firmware as .hex (Intel HEX) file format we are used to "serialize" our firmwares changing manually a string in the compiled file.
Would this be suitable also for .xe files?
There's a better way to provide a serial number to devices in mass production? If yes, how can it be accessed later?

Thanks everyone

Regards

Maybe try the `--outfile` and `--write-all` options of xflash to get a binary file you can work with
