TUSB3410UARTPDK: TUSB3410UARTPDK

Hi

      I have one more question added to my series of questions that I am not clear with. I burnt a binary into the EEPROM using the EEPROM burner tool. I get a message that it has succeeded and I needed to unplug and plug back the USB connection from the board to the PC. But when I use the option in the Burner GUI "Dump EEPROM content" and compare what I burnt with what I dumped, they do not match at all.... The .bin I dumped out of EEPROM using the tool atleast has Texas Instrument text labels on it and I can see that. But the .bin file I burnt i did not have all this and is completely different and that is ok but the issue is it does not match what I dumped out of EEPROM... What could the issue be?

regards

Bala

    Bala,

    The EEPROM shall contain not only the compiled firmware binary, but also a header containing the device's string descriptors (Product and Manufacturer IDs, Serial number, etc), customized VID/PID numbers and checksums to verify data integrity.
    The TUSB3x10 EEPROM burner, adds the header data to the compiled firmware binary, that is why the content of the EEPROM is different to the firmware file you used with the tool.
    The TUSB3x10 EEPROM burner has options not only to dump the EEPROM content, but also to generate a full binary (from the compiled firmware binary) including the header data. Please check the user's guide at www.ti.com/.../sllu205

    Regards,
