#150677 - How do I pull code from a micro to put on another?
I have a Silicon Laboratories C8051F125 microcontroller that has been programmed and works flawlessly. My problem is I need to download the code from that microcontroller and upload to several others. I do not have the original c/h files that were used to compile for the original microcontroller. I am able to use the SiLab IDE to pull the hex code from the original micro, but when I open it in notepad, it’s not in the proper format for a hex file. What’s the easiest way to take code from the original uController and use it to program other uControllers?

      I don't know what I need to do.            01/01/70 00:00      
         If the SiLabs part isn't protected ...            01/01/70 00:00      
            I don't think it is            01/01/70 00:00      
               good plan!            01/01/70 00:00

               as stated            01/01/70 00:00      
                  use an editor and an assembler            01/01/70 00:00      
                     SiLabs should be beaten for this,            01/01/70 00:00      
                        You cannot debug at source level...            01/01/70 00:00      
                           What do you mean?            01/01/70 00:00      
                              I mean            01/01/70 00:00      
               It worked fine for me see the results            01/01/70 00:00      
   not in the proper format for a hex file            01/01/70 00:00      
      Silabs IDE doesnt really support (intel) hex files            01/01/70 00:00      
         Formats            01/01/70 00:00      
            format            01/01/70 00:00      
               It looks like...            01/01/70 00:00      
   If the chip is not Soldered            01/01/70 00:00      
   SiLabs MCU KB            01/01/70 00:00      
      I can make a app to do that for you            01/01/70 00:00      
      Exactly what I was looking for.....            01/01/70 00:00
