SK-AM62A-LP: Flash tool error messages when flash the SOC initialization binary to the EVM

Part Number: SK-AM62A-LP
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

I met the problem below  when flashed the SOC initialization binary to the EVM.

Despite I make steps as the instruction of TI website below, the issue does always appear.

Please help to find the reason & resolve it ,thanks!

  • My EVM is set up to UART BOOT mode. If I execute the command as the instruction below in windows env., it failed as above Pic. shown:

    But it works on the Ubuntu env as below:

  • I've made several tests in UART BOOT mode. Sometimes, the errors still happen in the Ubuntu env below:

    It seems to be stuck for three minutes in the third stage when flashing in progress. This happens frequently in our board when debuging. I stll adopted the MCU SDK8.06.

  • Hi Django,

    Thank you for reaching out to Texas Instruments E2E support forum.

    I met the problem below  when flashed the SOC initialization binary to the EVM.

    From the image shared above it shows that the uart_uniflash tool is not able to find the files specified in default_sbl_null_hs_fs.cfg file.

    Please build the sbl_uart_uniflash_stage2 image and hello_world example by using the below commands.

    Please run the below command from MCU+SDK root directory.

    For sbl_uart_uniflash_stage_2 image :

    gmake -s -C examples/drivers/boot/sbl_uart_uniflash_multistage/sbl_uart_uniflash_stage2/am62ax-sk/r5fss0-0_nortos/ti-arm-clang
    

    For hello_world appimage:

    gmake -s -C examples/hello_world/am62ax-sk/r5fss0-0_freertos/ti-arm-clang/hello_world.release.appimage.hs_fs

    After building the above required images, please re-try to initialize the board. For more info, please refer EVM_FLASH_SOC_INIT.

    Please let me know if the above solution works.

    Best Regards,

  • Hello, Tushar!

    Maybe I find the main reason about it. Check the schematics & find the BOOTMODE9 pins level high. Maybe we will modify this problem for debuging more easilly. Thank you!

  • Hello Django,

    Thank you for the note. It will help future readers also.
