Part Number: OMAPL138B-EP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L138

Tool/software: Starterware

i am flash the final application using serial port

when i use the  LCDKL138 Board  no Problem

if i use Cutom Board i have the Problem as follows

Waiting for SFT on the OMAP-L138...

what are the possible solutions advice me

  • Senthil,

    Please see this thread where someone encountered the same problem. e2e.ti.com/.../235049
    Hope this helps.

    I will also move this thread to the L138 forum.

  • Serial flashing tool is meant to be flashing tool designed to flash images to TI evaluation platform, it doesn`t work out of the box on custom platforms unless the DDR/mDDR settings, flash media settings and UART or other clocking settings are modified appropriately.

    This has been explained in the following section:

  • THe NAND Memory requires users to erase the pages before you program it as the write operations converts bits from 1 to 0. Can you perform a erase operation before you flash the boot image.
