Hi,
Background: CCS5.1, debugging code on TMS320F28035 through a Blackhawk USB2000 emulator.
Question:
I run real time debug on my design for long periods at a time, as I'm trying to look at the raw ADC counts so that I can calculate calibration factors for what the ADC's are measuring. Every so often, I get a warning about the connection being lost due to the device being in low power mode.
This is random. It may take a day, it may take 10 minutes. However, whenever it happens, there is only one remedy. That is, close CCS5.1, get back in, press the debug button, reprogram the flash, get back into the debug screen, enable real time silicon debug...
My question deals with this: Is there a way to get back to the debug without reprogramming the chip? The program on the chip is fine. i.e. if I don't care about debug, I can power cycle the chip and it runs just fine from what's in flash. So, the whole process of erasing and reprogramming the flash while getting into debug isn't required; but I can't find any other way to get back to debug mode.
Any shortcuts?
By the way, I just installed an ESD mat on the bench in my office where I'm doing this. I'm hoping that some of these random lockups are just ESD glitches and that maybe this question will be a moot point.
