TMS320F28374D: Controller is not detecting

Part Number: TMS320F28374D
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDSEMU200-U, C2000WARE, UNIFLASH

Hello,

We have dessinged a TMS320F28374D based cutom controller board for a project and we are using XDS200 Digital spectrum for debugging and falsh operation. We are facing issues like, target is detecting wher we are trying to connect target and debugger is disconnecting when we are trying to do flash erase operation.  I have attached the screenshots for your reference.

Guide us on this.

  • Hello Alex,

    We have noticed one more thing here, We missed to wire Reset pin from 15th pin of JTAG connector to XRS pin of MCU, Is that required to connect? Evern we have connected through a series resistor between XRS and Reset pin of JTAG. After this we noticed in the RESC register, WDRSn bit also set now.

  • Hi Vasu,

    First I have to dump the code into the controller to try Falsh API programming. I could not dump the code.

    Alex's suggestion was to run the Flash programming example from RAM (import the project in CCS, launch the target configuration file, connect to the target, load program). So, are you not able to load anything to the device, even to the RAM?

    WDRSn - indicates a watchdog reset which can be a problem if it happens during Flash operations.

    Thanks,

    Sira

  • Connecting RESETn to XRSn is not required. We generally do not recommend this since the JTAG reset conditions aren't intended to align with XRSn type reset.

    So, are you not able to load anything to the device, even to the RAM?

    Please attempt what Sira recommended, please attempt to program the RAM only. 

    Best,
    Matt

  • Hello,

    Thank you so much for you support,

    As suggested earlier we were trying without external crystal oscillator and it was not working and now we tried after placing external crystal oscillator, it is working fine now and flash programming also happening.
