Hi,

 

We are Working with UCD3138A64 Controller and we got the sample codes for UCD3138A64  (sample codes of  UCD3138_PSFB_PCM ) but when we are trying to Download the code using the Fusion Digital Power designer. It is showing “No PMBus devices responded to DEVICE_ID” .

 

How to solve this issue , Please find the Images ,where you can see the issue

    Arvapally,

    If you close the firmware-download window after you see this message, and then click "Device ID" on the main GUI, does the GUI recognize the device in program mode?

    Hi Brandon,

    Thamk you for your reply.

    I have closed the Firmware-download window,and i cliked the "Device ID" on main GUI,this time it is showing device details.

    But in Firmwar-download window showing “No PMBus devices responded to DEVICE_ID”

    why it is showing this,and how to resolve this ?

     

    Do i need to instal any software for PMBUS also ?

    Arvapally,

    Please try adding the following lines to the end of the init_pmbus()method (just before the closing '}', after the pmbus_state = PMBUS_STATE_IDLE; statement):

    #if (UCD3138A64|UCD3138128)
    PMBusRegs.PMBACK.all = 1; //ack previous message already - ROM doesn't.
    #endif

    Once that is done, please compile and re-download the FW. Let me know if this fixes the problem. Thanks!

    Hi,
    I'm trying to program an UCD3138064 but it never leaves ROM mode.
    Have made all necessary changes on header files and all the address stuff.
    I try to upload the program but it will not run.
    Any help?

    Defined DEVICE as suggested in pmbus.h:
    #define DEVICE UCD310064V1 //Device Name

    This is the log file generated by Fusion.

    Can you give us a bit more information? What program are you downloading to what device, and on what kind of hardware? Is it the same issue - you can download and redownload, and you never get a Device ID?

    If that is the issue, check at the start of main.c. Most of the EVMs have a pin or pins that need to be pulled low or high - we use this as a backdoor to access ROM mode to prevent locking up the chip. If you download those programs to an open loop board instead of the EVM, often the pins will be in the right state for the backdoor to operate, meaning that the program will return to ROM mode, so you will never get a DEVICE_ID response. In this case you need to put a jumper on a pin to pull it low or high to prevent this from happening.
