Cannot connect to C28 core with xds100 v2

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

I'm working with Concerto F28M36 device. I can connect and debug M3 core but I can't connect with C28 core (Device is not responding to the request.  Device may be locked, or the emulator connection may be unreliable. Unlock the device if possible (e.g. use wait in reset mode, and power-cycle the board). If error persists, confirm configuration and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK).

 

  • Hi,

    It seems as if the C28 core has been locked. Try unlocking using CCS Uniflash tool.

    Unlock the device -> Program

  • I cannot connect with C28 core in Uniflash tool in order to unlock the device. 

  • Can you attach a screenshot of the alert window of Uniflash tool? I'm unable to understand by, what you mean by "I cannot connect with C28 core in Uniflash tool"

  • Thanks for your answer!

    I attach the information that Uniflash said to me.

    As you can see I can't connect with the C28 core and because of that, I can't erase and reprogram flash.

    Best Regards

  • Hi,

    Can you perform a JTAG integrity test? Its available in CCS -> Target Configuration -> Test Connection

    Do attach the screenshot of the result window after the test.

  • Hi!,

    I attach the information of Test Connection.

  • The above test clearly reveals that JTAG is well but not able to communicate with your device. This may happen if the C28 core is damaged/locked; also I forgot to ask you, is it a custom board or a dev kit?

  • Hi, 

    Yes, it's a custom board. I solved the problem changing the microprocessor (Concerto device). It's seem that C28 core was damaged.

    Regards!  

  • JMS that's a good news! Please verify your post and close the thread :)
