TMS320F28P659DK-Q1: TMS320F28P659DK-Q1

Part Number: TMS320F28P659DK-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG, C2000WARE, UNIFLASH, LAUNCHXL-F28P65X

Tool/software:

CCS crashes when flashing the f28p659dk-q1 device.

CSS Version: 12.5.0.00007

SysConfig Version: 1.18.0

C2000Ware: 5.1.0.00

Tool: XDS110 Debug Probe

I am trying to flash the f28p659dk-q1 device with production code using the stand-alone XDS110 Debug Probe. However, CSS crashes just after an error below appears;

C28xx_CPU1: Flash Programmer: Missing Flash Programming Settings.
C28xx_CPU1: File Loader: Memory write failed: Unknown error
C28xx_CPU1: GEL: File:C:\....out: Load failed.

I have used UniFlash as an alternative, to erase and flash the f28p659dk-q1 device with the .out file. It flashes successfully but the program is not verified as running correctly. 

Note:

The code flashes successfully with CSS on the LaunchXL-F28P65X evaluation board used for development.

And also ledblinky project flashes successfully with the f28p659dk-q1 device.

    Hi,

    Can you show an image of your On-Chip Flash tool in CCS? It would help to understand what the current download settings look like for your device. 

    Thanks,

    Charles

    Hi Charles,

    Thank you for reaching out. My apologies, where can I view this image in CCS?

    For context, I am using the XDS100 USB debugger.

    XDS110 Debug Probe (ti.com)

    Also a smaller GPIO toggle software flashes successfully in CCS, and not the project binary, which is larger.

    However both binaries flash well on the LaunchXL--F28P65X eval board.

    This is my target configuration,

    Hi Gabriel,

    The On-Chip Flash tool can be found by going to the Tools section of the CCS toolbar, then clicking On-Chip Flash:

    For the error that you are seeing, this is related to the Download Settings section in the On-chip flash tool:

    Are you able to erase the device using the GUI?

    Thanks,

    Charles

    Hi Charles, 

    Thank you for your reply. Today morning I selected a different target configuration e.g. TMS320F28P659DH8-Q1, instead of KH8 (on our custom board), and CCS flashed without crashing. I was also able to view the flash settings in the properties>Debug, which I couldn't see with the KH8 configuration file.

    I have updated CCS from 12.5.0 to 12.8.1 after advice from your colleague. I updated the target configuration file, and these works like a charm too.

    In conclusion, there is a problem with CCS12.5.0 and TMS320F28P659DK8-Q1.ccxml target configuration file. People with CCS12.5.0 will have to use the work-around like I have described above e.g. use a different device target config file, for the flashing to work. Or else update CCS.
