Broadcom WICED SDK for Amazon Dash

History

Based on the work of maximus64 and dekuNukem. Please visit their repositories for more information.

GPIO table in maximus64's platform.c was thrown out and reversed from dekuNukem's Cottonelle.bin and a sample binary compiled from the WICED SDK 2.4.1. The pin out here was also quite handy.

What Works

Wi-Fi
LED
Button
UART
SWD
SPI flash

To Do

I2S microphone (see staging directory for WIP)

Building

Download the Broadcom WICED SDK 3.3.1
Create a git repository out of it
git apply the patches in this repository

Development tools

The cheapest eBay Mini ST-Link V2 is what I use to flash firmware.
Note that the Amazon Dash comes with its internal flash memory write protected, OpenOCD can help with unlocking it.

stm32f2 unlock 0 # this will also mass erase your Dash's flash

stlink is what I use to flash binaries built without WICED.

Examples

Some example code exists in the snip directory.
Build them like this:

./make AMAZONDASH-snip.sflash

Building a custom WICED firmware

./make AMAZONDASH-snip.sflash download run JTAG=stlink-v2
