Cannot connect to RM48L950 anymore

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, RM48L950, ASH

I am unable to connect to my RM48L950 using CCS 5.4 or Uniflash v3 anymore. I get the following error 

IcePick: Error connecting to the target: (Error -2131 @ 0x0) Unable to access device register. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 5.1.340.0) 

I get the following log when I try to perform a Test Connection operation on the target configuration. 

[Start]

Execute the command:

%ccs_base%/common/uscif/dbgjtag -f %boarddatafile% -rv -o -F inform,logfile=yes -S pathlength -S integrity

    Yash,

    Your post indicates that something is wrong with this device. It is possible that some error in the flash code puts the device into undefined states. After a power-on-reset, CPU starts to run from address zero. When you halt the CPU with debugger, a big portion of the flash code has been executed. Check the functions performed by your Fl;ash code and see if there is any possibility to use external signal to halt CPU execution if the hope that CPU can be halted before the error code.

    To prevent this issue from happening again, I would suggest you putting this instruction "b #-8" at address 0x0 during your development/debugging phase.  With this instruction, CPU will loop around address 0x0 after reset. Then you can use debugger to control the execution flow with everything on the device is at the default state.

    Thanks and regards,

    Zhaohong

    Hi Zhaohong,

    Thanks a lot for the response, can you please explain to me how I would go about putting the instruction 'b #-8' at 0x00? I am unable to connect to the target for any operations including erase or program.

    I was hoping for a solution which would involve a hard reset option that would have a factory reset effect on the Flash and EEPROM.

    Thanks,

    Yash
