TMS320F28027: convert .out file to .txt file for serial flash programming

Part Number: TMS320F28027

Hi,

according to SPRABV4B shown below, I can convert the file using hex2000.exe

But it comes out like this, Example_2802xSci_echoback.out is the project name and I've copied it to the same directory as hex2000.exe.

Can anybody help me? Thanks.

  • I've converted .out to .txt in CCS, but when i try to load the code through SCI, it's like this, the app code has not loaded from the picture below, how can i know if the kernel has been loaded in ? what may cause this? Thanks.

    Besides, I didn't use "serial_flash_programmer.sln" at all, is it a problem?

    Because i think "serial_flash_programmer.sln" is another way to load code(with visual studio together) like "serial_flash_programmer.exe", right?

  • You don't have to use the Visual Studio project. You can use the .exe.

    Please use command line parameter '-v' for verbose printing.

    It looks like it may be getting stuck trying to perform an autobaud lock. You need to make sure your device is booting properly to the SCI bootloader and that you are able to properly communicate to the TX and RX pins from your PC.

  • Thanks,

    but i want to point out that the one of the two ways for converting .out to .txt files shown in application note

    "Serial Flash Programming of C2000™ Microcontrollers" is wrong.

    it should not be

    "hex2000.exe -boot -sci8 -a -o <file.txt> <file.out>"

    but like

    "hex2000.exe -boot -a -sci8 blinky_cpu01.out -o blinky_cpu01.txt"

  • Howard,

    Below command should work. I infact tested it.

    "hex2000.exe -boot -sci8 -a -o <file.txt> <file.out>"

  • Yes, you are correct.
