[FAQ] PROCESSOR-SDK-C665X: How to update the firmware of the inbuilt-XDS emulator on C6657 EVM? The XDS in the EVM has the older firmware which does not connect/work with CCS 9.3

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-C665X

Hi,

I couldn't connect the XDS 200 inbuilt emulator on C6657 EVM using CCS 9.3 

I couldn't use the automatic-update option in the CCS.

Is there any method to upgrade the firmware of XDS 200? to work with CCS 9.3?

Answer : 

For CCS 9.3

Connection diagram:

Go to the directory where the utility is installed:

C:>cd C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx

    b. Launch and Run the configuration file (.cxml )  just to make sure a XDS200-class debugger is connected.. and to know the firmware-revision installed on it.

     

C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf get xds2xxu 0

    c. Run the commands in the exact order shown below:

C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf update xds2xxu 0 xds200_firmware_v1009.bin

C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf program xds2xxu 0 xds2xx_cpld_v1009.xsvf

C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf boot xds2xxu 0

  d. Run the command in step 2 again to check that the correct firmware was loaded.

C:\ti\ccs0930\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf get xds2xxu 0

For CCS 10.4

Go to the directory where the utility is installed:

C:>cd C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx

    b. Launch and Run the configuration file (.cxml )  just to make sure a XDS200-class debugger is connected.. and to know the firmware-revision installed on it.

C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf get xds2xxu 0

    c. Run the commands in the exact order shown below:

C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf update xds2xxu 0 xds200_firmware_v1009.bin

C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf program xds2xxu 0 xds2xx_cpld_v1009.xsvf

C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf boot xds2xxu 0

  d. Run the command in step 2 again to check that the correct firmware was loaded.

C:\ti\ccs1040\ccs\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds2xx>xds2xx_conf get xds2xxu 0
