How to use serial_flash_programmer

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE

Hi, 

I'm trying to use serial_flash_programmer to download the programme to F28379D. The command is:

serial_flash_programmer.exe  -d f2837xD -k F2837xD_sci_flash_kernels_cpu01.txt  -a blinky_dc_cpu01.txt -b 9600 -p COM4

but the computer information is:

getting comm state

adjusting port settings

calling f021_DownloadKernel CPU1 Kernel
Downloading F2837xD_sci_flash_kernels_cpu01.txt to device...

What's the reason and how can I do? thanks

  • Please see www.ti.com/lit/sprabv4

    What type of F2837xD device are you using? Control Card? Launchpad? Own PCB?

    What GPIOs are you using for SCI communication?

    Please add -v flag to the command line for verbose printing.

  • It's my own PCB, and GPIO is GPIO84 & 85, it works correct when using C2Prog.exe.

    After add -v flag, the information is :
