SK-AM62A-LP: Flash card using uniFlash tool

Gustav Malmstrom

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

Does the tool uniFlash (UNIFLASH Software programming tool | TI.com) support the SK-AM62A-LP card?

I have managed to flash the card using the UART_UNIFLASH.py program in the MCU SDK. But I would also like to be able to flash using uniFlash using a JTAG debugger.

Hi Gustav,

There is no support for AM62A from Uniflash. Even if there was, Uniflash only acts as a framework for sending the flash writer and then the rest of the images to be flashed. This flash writer comes from the SDK.

Now, the flash writer in the MCU+ SDK only supports flashing via UART. So, the Uniflash ultimately will be using UART only and not JTAG for sending images.

Regards,

Prashant

Is there a way to only flash one of the domains using the UART_UNIFLASH.py?

The examples takes a long time to use when developing since they flash all the domains on the card.

Hi Gustav,

I am not sure if I exactly understand the term "domains" here. Are you asking whether you can flash only certain core images and not all every time? If so then yes you need not flash all the images every time.

Usually, for first time you would flash all the images. After that, you can flash only the images that are changing and commenting out the rest.

Regards,

Prashant

Hello,

Domains might be the wrong word. Yes, the question was about flashing all core images.

Good, that will reduce the time needed to wait to test new builds.

Thank you!
