EVM430-FR6043: UART IC Programming in board

Hi Leo,

Thanks for the link will test and update.

AK

I have a 2 development boards of EVM430-FR6043, In which one boards uart and debug IC must be loaded.

Is that possible to load program to the above IC using other EVM Board?

AK

Hi AK,

Are you trying to program the FR6043 on one board with the FET from another EVM?

Im trying to program F5528 (UART &programming IC) in EVM Board.
To Be more specific please refer the image

Hi Akash,

You should be able to do this. For the USB/UART bridge, you'll need the same image that is used in the captivate programmer:

Hi Leo,

I tried with the above example, HIDBRIDGE is getting programmed and the comm port is not getting detected after programmed.

The ezfet throws an error stating device has been secured while programming.

Is there anyway to clear this issue

AK

Checked with other ezfet board.
Loaded EZFET_Rev1_2_BSL_1_2_noHs file in uniflash, the below error is received.

Hi Akash,

The FET shouldn't be locked. Please accept my friend request to discuss further.

When loaded EZFET code in uniflash it fails to load, but HID brdige is getting programmed

Hi Akash,

Can you confirm whether you are trying to program a working EVM or a target board?

Hi Leo,
We made a HIDbridge and Ezfet Part (Interface Part)  of the EVM Board. and Im trying to program that interfacing part.


With this Interfacing  Board we will program and communicate with the MSP430FR6043 and receive Ultrasonic Readings.

Hi Akash,

Can you confirm that when you try to program the F5528 part on the EVM from TI, that this doesn't give an error?

Hi Leo,
When tried to program the HID firmware it doesnt five any error,
but when tried to flash the ezfet and BSL firmware it gives error. ( I couldnt load the firmware in uniflash. The MCU is detected and could flash sample program of F5528 in both the MCU.

Hi Akash,

I forgot to mention, there is already a small interface/programming board that you can use for this purpose available from TI:

https://www.ti.com/tool/CAPTIVATE-PGMR

Is this useful?

Hi Leo,
Yes you have mentioned it earlier, but we need to program the device we made.
Just need a clarification about the bianries sahred from TI, as the binary for EZFET can't be loaded in uniflash, but HIDbridge binary is flashed in both the MCU. So the MCU is working fine but EZFET Binary has some errors in it.
