Tool/software:

Hi TI Team,

I have been struggling with trying to use the on board flash memory to hold the program and make the LPAM263P kit boot from it.

Steps I have taken :
1. Use UNIFLASH to put the app image on the memory chip.
2. Change the BOOT MODE,
3. Power Cycle the board.

I was curious if there is any guide available on how to use the flash memory for this for this board.

Hey Nilabh,

Tried to follow the guide u shared above.

"

Next, we need to list the files to flash in a flash configuration file. A default configuration file can be found at below path. You can edit this file directly or take a copy and edit this file.

"

This step is not clear to me, where do I find this file mcelf_sbl_opsi.cfg
I tried to grep this in my project folder, but cant find it.

If I have to generate this, whats the process?

Hi Navneet,

Apologies I could not respond earlier as I was on leave.

You can find the files in SDK itself, Have you downloaded and installed the SDK:

https://www.ti.com/tool/MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263PX

Path where you can find the sdk:

C:\ti\mcu_plus_sdk_am263px\tools\boot\sbl_prebuilt\am263px-lp\mcelf_sbl_ospi.cfg

For sbl example path:
