CCS/TMS320F28035: Problem with the debug probe of a TMS320C2000 Microcontroller

Part Number: TMS320F28035


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello! I'm having a problem with debug probe. At first, I have to mention that the probe was connected in the wrong place, It was connected in a GPIO terminal, I realized that after hear the board beep. Then i put it in the right place, but now I cannot do the debug because appears a message in CCS indicating that something is wrong with the debug probe. My questions are if there is the possibility that the probe got damaged? If so, how can I fix it?

  • Alberto,
    Can you give me the part number of the kit that schematic you have shown above? The 14 pin JTAG should have a key pin that wouldn't allow it to be inserted in a full 14-pin header.

    At any rate, if you have the docking station you have shown above, have you tried to plug the control CARD into it and see if you can get connection. I'd like to start with the simplest system to determine if either the controlCARD or JTAG debug pod is damaged or not.

  • Alberto,
    Wanted to check back to see if you have had a chance to try the USB based emulator that is on the docking station?

  • Hi Matthew! sorry for the delay, i was very busy these days. Regarded to the docking station, I couldn't test it the way you said, because I don't have the card you mentioned, but I already could determine that the docking station is damaged because y tried with another docking station and it ran without problem. I would appreciate if you can help to determine which ones are the most likely to be damaged components , I would like to repair it ( if it worthwhile) since the docking station feeding pad received voltages of 15 and 5 volts in pins that there where not supposed to receive. I can send you the schematic of the microcontroller and the docking station. Can you facilitate me with a mail where I can send to you?

    Thanks a lot in advance, for your help.

    Regards.

  • Alberto,
    I will send you a private chat message, we can share schematics outside the forum that way.

  • Alberto,

    Just wanted to check in to see if you still needed assistance.  You should see a connection request from me from the forum in case we need to look at schematics.

    Best,
