EK-TM4C129EXL: Load blinky.bin via (UART) Bootloader

Part Number: EK-TM4C129EXL

Hello,
I have Code Composer 6.1.2 installed. I'm just trying to load the sample project blinky via the (Uart) bootloader. Unfortunately, the blinky program does not start.

I removed the jumpers BoosterPack, OTG, CAN1, CAN2, UART1 and UART2. Only the jumper at ICMP is set. At the pins PA0 and PA1 I have a UART converter connected, which is connected to my PC.

Then I load the project boot_serial via JTAG interface in the Microcontoller. Then I open LM Flash Programmer.

I load the blinky.bin via the Uart botloader into the TM4C129. My Uart-USB Converter lights up and below is Programming. There is no error, but after the program has been loaded, it does not start. What can this be? Please help me

  • The example "blinky" (C:\ti\TivaWare_C_Series-2.1.4.178\examples\boards\ek-tm4c129exl\blinky) is designed to load at address 0, the same address as the bootloader. The bootloader loads blinky.bin at address 0x4000. Look at the example project boot_demo1. In the link command file, boot_demo1_ccs.cmd, you see that the flash memory starts at 0x4000 instead of 0. Also the .intvecs section is bound to address 0x4000 instead of zero.
