Abstract

The invention discloses a transfer method of optical module firmware visualization, and belongs to the field of optical fiber communications. The transfer method includes the following steps: a configuration file including all communication interface information of the optical module is created; the configuration file is transferred to a communication interface information code file; concrete realization function of the communication interface information of the firmware is accomplished, and the communication interface information is compiled to an executable firmware. According to the transfer method of the optical module firmware visualization, the configuration file including all the communication interface information of the optical module is created before research and development of the firmware, and the configuration file is transferred to the communication interface information code file, and therefore a firmware researching and developing engineer and a firmware testing engineer can directly check a communication interface information code in the communication interface information code file; visual research, development and test of the optical module firmware is achieved; researching, developing and testing efficiency of the firmware is improved; and researching and developing period of the firmware is shortened greatly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fiber communication, in particular to a visual conversion method for optical module firmware. Background technique [0002] An optical module is a device that realizes photoelectric conversion, and is composed of an optoelectronic device, a functional circuit and an optical interface. Optical module firmware (Firmware) is an executable program solidified in the PROM, EEPROM or FLASH ROM inside the optical module, which is responsible for coordinating and controlling various devices inside the entire optical module to make it work normally according to the predetermined function. In the existing optical module firmware development process, the optical module firmware is usually jointly developed by multiple firmware engineers, and each person is only responsible for a part of it. Because firmware engineers often need to cross-obtain relevant firmware information that the other party is responsible for, and ...
