TDA2SX: Circuit Based on MMWCAS-DSP-EVM Board with TDA2X Chip Design Unable to Boot, Kernel Not Loading

Genius 13655 points
Part Number: TDA2SX


Hello Champs,

HW: own board based on MMWCAS-DSP-EVM, same except for adding UART function
SW:PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_01_00

Customer is attempting to recreate a development board circuit based on the MMWCAS-DSP-EVM board circuit, using the TDA2X chip. The configuration currently in use is the tda2xx_cascade_linux_radar version. When he connected the development board to the computer, the serial port displays that the kernel is not loading.

Booting from eMMC ...
Wrong Image Format for bootm command
ERROR: can't get kernel image!

The image below is a comparison of the serial output from my custom board and the MMWCAS-DSP-EVM output. Could you advise on how to modify the configuration files to enable the system to boot properly? Is it necessary to flash the onboard EEPROM?


Thanks

  • Hi,

    From the Radar SDK installation, You can find the document regarding memory map modification at the below location. ~/vision_sdk/docs/FeatureSpecificUserGuides/VisionSDK_UserGuide_MemoryMap.pdf

    You need to update the memory map to match your 1.5GB DDR space.

    Regards,

    Stanley
