Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LAUNCHXL-F28069M, C2000WARE
Hi helpers,
I tried using the C2000ware example to build serial_flash_programming.txt and the flash_2806x.txt. Tried on LAUNCHXL-F28069M. The terminal wait at "start downloading example to device". When I pressed the reset button on board. Then the terminal move on and application load successful after some echo. My question is on the need for reset as I already bootup using SCI boot mode.
Setting the bootup pin to SCI mode. I suppose once the board is powered up. The controller run the bootrom and stop at waiting SCI boot after reading the SCI bootmode pin. Then when PC software run the flash kernel. It will program to flash right away. Why is there a reset needed? Because this may affect the product design adding one button for this firmware upgrade.
Besides: In the example project given, the download process automatically branch to the new codeStart location and flash the LED. Is this auto branch be disable? So that I can make sure bootmode pin needs to change back to flash mode after someone update the firmware.
