TMS570LS3137: Hercules safety microcontroller TMS570ls3137 - UART on peripheral interface (SCI2) not working properly

Part Number: TMS570LS3137
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: HALCOGEN,

Hi,

I am trying to use the example_sci_uart_9600.c project given in halcogen.

With the virtual com port on the usb jtag, i receive the data just fine on my pc terminal but if i try to use the peripheral interface then am receiving garbage data.

I am not sure what is the problem, could it be due to the CPLD routing the line to usb jtag?

    Hi Haris,

    On TI TMS570LS31x HDK board, the virtual COM port is mapped to device SCI2. Which hardware PCB board did you use?

    Can I have more details?

    The HDK TMS570lS3137 Development board peripheral interface (connected to a simple daughter board).

    Instead of using the onboard xdsv200 jtag provided virtual port for serial communication, i wanted to test the lin(SCI2) port on the peripheral interface. Now its working fine with the jtag i.e i am able to see proper data on PC terminal with provided Halcogen uart example, but with direct serial connection to peripheral interface LIN port, i get random/garbage data on PC terminal. (USB jtag not connected simultaneouly as well, just to rule that out)

    Hi Haris,

    UART is used on point-to-point communication. If the USB JTAG is not connected, the FT2232 is powered off, so the SCI2 + your daughter + PC should work. Does your daughter-card have a UART transceiver? 

    If you connect your daughter card to SCI1, does it work?
