I tried the programmer.out for C5505-ezdsp, it gave me WRITE ERROR at 0000.

And I was using hex55 v4.3.5 to generate the binary boot code.

Thanks,

Hi Bin,

The programmer for the VC5505 EVM is on the Spectrum Digital Support Website under EVM5505 Test Code (http://support.spectrumdigital.com/boards/evm5505/revd/).

When you open the zip file, the “programmer.out” file is located under “evm5505_v1\demo\”.

And if you haven’t seen it already, the C5505/4 Bootloader Appnote is available on the TI Product Page (http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/litabsmultiplefilelist.tsp?literatureNumber=sprab92).

Hope this helps,

Mark

There is some additional information required to use the EVM flash programmer. The README file doesn't describe how to create the .bin file from the .out file. Here are the details:

Creating a Boot Image with Hex55 Utility

- Use the hex conversion utility (hex55.exe) revision 4.3.3 or later.
- To create a bootimage:
Type "hex55 AudioBypass.cmd" ==> this will convert "audiobypass.out" to "audiobypass.bin".

Please modify the input and output file name if you need.

Information in the .cmd file for the audiobypass demo code is:
-boot
-v5505
-serial8
-b
-o .\output\audiobypass.bin
.\COFF_input\audiobypass.out

Tom
