Flash Programming DRV8303EVM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8303, CONTROLSUITE, DRV8303EVM

Hi,

We are using the DRV8303 EVM board to program our Brushless DC motor. We have trouble flashing our software onto the board. Is there a certain way we can keep the software loaded on the board when powering it off and on again?

Thanks

  • Hi Kyle,

    We will contact our expert on this device and have them reply. Can you describe the problem that you are having in more detail?

    What steps are you taking and what do you observe? Screenshots can help if you have them.
  • Hi Kyle,

    Can you ensure you are following the procedure outlined in the User's Guide. section 4.2?

  • Hi Nick,

    I did follow the directions in section 4.2 for the DRV8303EVM User's Guide. I created the ccxml file as stated. I am using the "InstaSPIN_BLDC" program which is located in "controlSUITE --> development_kits --> DRV8300x-HC-C2-KIT_v105 --> InstaSPIN_BLDC". I also have Code Composer Studio version 6.0.1 installed. I first loaded the InstaSPIN_BLDC code onto the DRV8303EVM board. Once I power off the board, and power it back on, the code does not flash onto the board. Meaning, the program does stay saved onto the broad. Also, one thing that I notice is when I power the board (supplying voltage to the "VM" and ground the "GND"), LED 3 (the STATUS LED) does not light up as well. I don't know if this may be an issue.

    Thanks
