SD Flash F28335 flash over SCI (RS-232)

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

I have a problem using SD flash on

WIN7/64

TMS230/F28335

CCS5

For setting up SD Flash i used the documentation "SDFlash_Serial_RefGuide_v3_3"

In the document p. 11, setting up sdopts.cfg for serial operation don’t work…

The directory of this file is:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\sdopts.cfg

and I added my USB to Serial link on COM7:

# ======================================================================================

# SDFLASH

#

[EmulatorId=C7]

EmuPortAddr=0xC7

EmuPortMode=RS232

EmuProductName=SERIAL_FLASH

 

But SD flash cannot find the emulator in the example project for the f28335:

What went wrong?

  • Dennis,

    I would recommend you to use Uniflash (or) codeskin (www.codeskin.com) flash programmer which has flash programming capability using SCI.

    SDFlash tool provided by spectrum digital and TI is actually proof of concept of serial flash programming with little (or) no technical support. This is mentioned in SDFlash reference guide.

  • Hello Manoj,

    thank you for the fast reply, I'm not sure if Uniflash works for the F28335 in combination with serial flashing over rs232. I can't find the target configuration file for the F28335 and serial link, flashing with XDS100 works fine. I also installed codeskin and converted the *out-file into an *.hex-file, but i haven't tried to program the µC yet. Maybe I can post the result next week. But I would prefer a solution which works for more than only C2000/MSP430 devices (codeskin), because we use other µCs as well.

    kind regards

  • Dennis,

    I believe codeskin supports both C2000 and MSP430. Please check it out.

    Regards,
    Manoj
