The GigaDevice GD32G5 series are 32-bit general-purpose microcontrollers based on the ARM Cortex-M33 processor.

Flash Banks

Internal Flash

Flash Bank Base address Size J-Link Support
Internal Flash 0x08000000 Up to 512 KB YES.png
Option Bytes 0 0x1FFF7800 48 B YES.png
Option Bytes 1 0x1FFFF800 48 B YES.png
OTP Bytes 0x1FFF7000 2 KB NO.png

The option bytes are written via different addresses than the read addresses from the datasheet listed in the table above. The J-Link Flash Loader remaps those addresses transparently so they are still used for programming.

Note:
Writing 0xCC to the option byte at 0x1FFF7800 is an irreversible operation as this will make all option bytes including itself read-only.

Watchdog Handling

  • The device has two watchdogs: FWDGT (free watchdog) and WWDGT (window watchdog).
  • Both watchdogs are fed during flash programming.

Device Specific Handling
