DLPLCRC900EVM: Flash Memory burned by accident - I want to replace it

Part Number: DLPLCRC900EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DLPC900

Hi, 

I have burned the component GL01GS11FHIV2 of the evaluation board due to a high voltage by accident. I understood that it was the flash memory of the board. I want to try to replace it, instead of rebuying a whole new board. 

I saw on the electronic schematic of the board that the component number U36 doesn't have the same part number that the one physically on my board (on the board it is the GL01GS11FHIV2, and on the schematic it is the S70GL02GS12FHIV20. I suppose that they are practically the same but can you confirm ? Because i can only find the schematic one to buy on internet. 


I also wanted to know if it is possible to have the software that was in this component, if there was one. In addition, can you tell me how to install it please ? 

Thank you in advance,

Thomas

    Thomas,

    I can confirm that the S70GL02GS12FHIV20 is most recent flash memory used for this EVM.  Sometime there are substitutes depending on availability.

    For the SW question, all of the FW required for the EVM is located here:  https://www.ti.com/tool/DLPLCRC900EVM - scroll to the bottom and you will see the FW.

    I am going to ask another engineer to respond on which file and the way to program it.

    Hello Thomas,

    You will need to download two installers.

    The FW and SW packages:  https://www.ti.com/tool/DLPLCRC900EVM 

    The Reference Software after installing contains a folder named JTAG that will be needed for reloading the boot loader.

    Next you will need to look at the DLP® LightCrafterTm Single DLPC900 Evaluation Module (EVM) User's Guide (Rev. C) - https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/dlpu101 

    Please follow the instructions in section 7.11 JTAG Flash Programming on page - including building the JTAG programmer since the flash will be empty.  Follow the instructions in the JTAG directory where the Reference Software installed.

    After the bootloader is installed. Then use the GUI interface over USB to program the main part of the firmware:

    Install the BOOTHold jumper (J11) and turn the system on with the USB cable connected to the PC. The system will show as connected in the GUI but will not recognize the attached DMD. Manually select the button that matches the current DMD and navigate to the firmware tab. Select the correct firmware image from the location that the FW installed to and program the firmware. Then power down, remove the BOOTHold jumper, and restart the system. 

    Please let me know if you need further assistance.
