F2806x USB Bootloader

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LAUNCHXL-F28069M, CONTROLSUITE

Hi,

I'm using the LaunchXL-F28069M board and trying to implement the USB Bootloader following the ControlSuite v150 USBBL userguide.

I am importing the bl_app project (C:\ti\controlSUITE\device_support\f2806x\v150\F2806x_examples_ccsv5\bl_app location) and the boot_loader project (C:\ti\controlSUITE\device_support\f2806x\v150\MWare\boot_loader location).

1) The bl_app project compiles without any error or warning but when I execute it, the device is not recognized (Unknown device - error code 29) as a DFU device. Is there something I'm missing?

2) I can't compile the boot_loader project due to

- Error : "identifier int16_t is undefined

- Warnings : function MemCopy declared implicitly

I checked the includes and linker option and it seems normal.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Thibault,

1) You will need to install the device driver in Device Manager on your Windows machine. Which OS are you using?

2) Please try using v140 in controlSUITE for these projects. We are planning on deprecating this tool and replacing it with a cleaner usb flash programming solution.

Hi Sal,

My computer is running under Windows 7 64-bits
I found that my USB PLL registers were not set according to my hardware setup (external 12MHz quartz).
Fixing that made it work.

When does TI plan on delivering a cleaner usb flash programming solution ?

Thanks

Hi Thibault,

We hope to have the F2837x usb flash programming solution ported to F2806x by the end of the year. Right now the F2806x solution does work. You can also look at the F2837x solution in controlSUITE. The usb_flash_progamming tool is available, as well as the usb flash kernel and the USB ROM bootloader symbols are available as well. If you wish, you should be able to port the F2837x solution.

Hope this helps.
