Part Number: TIDA-00705
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UCD3138,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello!

I have TIDA-00705 (UCD3138) board and I got installation file from TI with it's firmware. I have installed it and import UCD3138 firmware with copying in new folder (use Code Compeser Studio 7.2). Then I copied headers, linkers and some source files of UCD3138 to project folder. Compilation was successful. I loaded firmware to board but it not work (UCD device GUI can't find device in program mode). Can you give some advices?

Thanks.

    Hi, Alex,

    Are you sure the hardware you received is good? Does the board work before you reload the firmware into the device?

    Thanks,

    Alexander,

    What version of the firmware are you using . There is actually a download link placed on the website to download the latest firmware . DO you have that ?

    Please note that the device needs calibration to proceed. It will purposely remove communication until the calibration is done. Please look at the instructions document placed along with the firmware .

    Thanks,
    Sanatan

    I use "SyncBuckFirmware-1.0-windows-installer.exe". I found binary "*.x0" file in install directory and download it to device. The device starts to answer on "UCD3xxx & UCD9xxx Device GUI" messages (now I can find device in program mode). Therefore error in project configuration, I think, but I don't know where I made mistake. I made copy of project to my workspace using "Code Composer Studio" and configuration of project also must copyed too, or not?

    Alexander, why do you think there is an error in project configuration?  Can you not build the project?  If not, what errors do you get?

    If you copy the project to your workspace, that should include the project configuration as well.

    I strongly suggest that you try the training videos.  They also come with lab projects that you can use with CCS and the Device GUI to work through all of these issues.  The first one we informally call the pipe cleaner, because it gets the compiling and downloading pipes checked out.  Kind of like the old "hello world" program in C.
