    I am not sure what your question really is here, are you looking for a way to burn the flash or for alternate methods of booting the DM648? I have not done much DM648 work myself but I believe the software package included with the DM648 EVM has software for burning the flash on the EVM.

    Bernie is correct - the EVM comes with software that allows you to write to the flash on the EVM. If you wish to do this on your own hardware then the EVM flash writer may not work.

    This is because the EVM incorporates an MSP430 to do a lot of signal routing (among other things). The flash writer that comes in the DVSDK (downloadable from the DM648 Software Updates page) was written specifically for the EVM and as such likely would not work on your board unless you design yours the same way; however, you could still use that software as a starting point and modify it to fit your board instead.

    hi,

    DM648 dvsdk contains the flashutil folder, which contains the document having process for flashing the application onto dm648 flash memory.

    I have tried this and it works fine.
