    Hi Jose,

    First program the following binary image onto the TIVA board. Next connect PA7, PA6, and PA5 from the TIVA to the I2C channels shared from the FTDI to the TPS65982, where SDA = PA7, SCL = PA6, and IRQ = PA5. Next change the connected device in the GUI to the TIVA and you should detect it

    Hi Adam,

    Thanks for the instructions and the TIVA C image. I was able to configure the TIVA C board and read the contents. Yet, writing a new BIN file failed with the following message:

    Exception Encountered during EVM SPI FLash:Erase Failed

    <type 'exceptions.Exception'>

    and details:

    Traceback (most recent call last):

    File "dialogWindow.pyc", line 6512, in flash_spi_flash

    File "device_rw.pyc", line 438, in erase_spi_flash

    Exception

    It appears that I'm missing the SPI connections to proceed. 

    In order to write the file, I created a dummy project, selected the TIVA adapter, selected the "Binary > Flash from binary" option, entered the BIN file path. Did I miss anything or is it that I need the SPI connections?

    Hi Adam,

    In my previous reply I stated that I'm programming the board, which may lead to the assumption that I'm programming a TPS65982 EVM. Instead, I'm programming a TPS65982 part that is soldered down on a proprietary board that allows access points for::

    1. I2C(2) bus lines

    2. SPI bus lines

    I'm not sure if that makes any difference but I wanted to clarify.

    Hi Adam,

    Could you please provide feedback on my question regarding the SPI error? It appears that I need to add SPI control connections to the setup...

    Best regards,

    Here are the SPI connections for the TIVA board

    SPI_MISO = PB6

    SPI_MOSI = PB7

    SPI_CLK = PB4

    SPI_CSZ = PA3
