TMS320F280039C: c2000 software update through DCAN

Part Number: TMS320F280039C
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

I need to implement a program to software update the c2000 TMS320F28003X IC through the DCAN communication pins. the program data will be sent through the CAN bus from another device. what I need to do is to load the incoming data through DCAN and update the c2000 chip to the incoming program. looking forward to implement this through the most optimized method. it is fine for me to make the device reset after the program is updated. please guide me through the process 

Thank you, 
Best Regards,
Ashan 

  • Hi Ashan,

    There is a DCAN Flash Kernel example available in C2000Ware that shows how you can complete this task using the DCAN peripheral. The DCAN Flash Kernel example for F28003x can be found at C2000Ware_Location/driverlib/f28003x/examples/flash. Additionally, this application note (https://www.ti.com/lit/sprad51) details the implementation and how to use it. The host programmer discussed in the application note can be found at C2000Ware_Location/utilities/flash_programmers/dcan_flash_programmer. 

    Please let me know if you have any questions!

    Kind regards,

    Skyler
