LAUNCHXL-F28379D: USB bootloader access

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28379D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: C2000WARE

Tool/software:

My requirement is to download firmware to flash using USB  (JTAG not available) from a windows 10 PC with C2000Ware v5.02.

I try the WEIRD procedure to enable the USB boot mode through the JTAG debugger like replacing 0xD00 value by 0xC5A & reset the cpu

No USB device appears : it FAILS

It is so impossible to use the usb flash programmer tool.

Note: this procedure works with a TI Delfino F28379D controlCARD...

so it seems that with F28379D launch pad it is not possible to perform a firmware update using USB.

  • Hello,

    Note: this procedure works with a TI Delfino F28379D controlCARD...

    so it seems that with F28379D launch pad it is not possible to perform a firmware update using USB.

    Unfortunately this is the case. F2837xD LaunchPads do not have a USB peripheral allowing for USB data transfer, unlike controlCards.

    Best,

    Matt
