CCS/TMS320F28379D: How MCU boot from its Flash F28379D controlCARD

Part Number: TMS320F28379D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am evaluating your example code from CONTROLSUITE "IDDK_PM_Servo_F2837x-v2" with your F28379D controlCARD (http://www.ti.com/tool/TMDSCNCD28379D). I am able to use USB cable to debug it through its Built-in Isolated JTAG Emulation. However, when I would like my MCU starts from flash code after reset 5V power, the MCU doesn't start. Is there any hardware switch I have to change? I see there is SW1 in the PCB board. Here are my CCS setting and the SW schematic circuit.

Thanks so much.

Lewis

  • Yusi,

    it looks like you have correctly correctly changed your CCS project's build configuration to "Flash". Build that project and ensure you are loading the .out file found in the flash build folder.

    The controlCARD uses "SW1" to choose the boot mode. To boot into flash you need to get a logic 1 on both GPIO72 and GPIO84. This means that both positions of SW1 should be in the "upward" position.

    Please let me know if this solves your problem.
