Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS570LS3137

Hi,

When i try to erase the flash of TMS570LS30336 micro, i get the above error as Frequency 0Hz.

Could somebody help me to find what the problem is?

 

Thanks & Regards

  • Hi Firoz,

    This is a problem on some of the first devices, which makes the speed detection do not work.

    You can alter the Speed Detection Method by editing the configuration file of nowFlash.

    Pleas open the file "nowFlash.cfg" in the nowFlash installation and search for TMS570LS3137.

    You should find the fowlling:

    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
    ; Config for TMS570LS3137
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
    ; actual device ID is 0x802AAD05<- Rev A,
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
    Device ID: 0x802AAD05         TMS570LS3137
      ProgVersion: 1.50 ; Library Version
      ProgRoutines: F021_R4_BE.x70 ; Platform library archive
      SpeedTestMethod: 2
      Frequency: 180.0 Range: 10.0 - 180.0
      Minor Revisions: 1
        0 "TMS570LS30336U Rev A"

    Than change the marked line to:

      SpeedTestMethod: 1

    Now the speed detection should work proper on your device.

    Best Regards,
