Flashing SPI Flash from OMAP L138 E (secure) with UART Tool

Thomas Gahleitner

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP-L138, OMAPL138

Hello, we are using a custom board and the OMAP L138 E.

I build a little programm for flashing some LEDs and use the secure AISgen tool to get the right formatted .bin File for flashing to the SPI Flash. Which Tool is provided from TI to flash the file over the UART to the secure OMAP-L138 E?

I have tried to boot my file with GenericSecureUartHost.exe and this is working fine, but flashing with the sfh_OMAP-L138.exe is not possible I think, or is it?

Best regards

Dear Thomas,
We don't have a GUI tool to flash the binary into SPI/NAND/NOR flash devices like SFH too but we do have CCS writer to tool.
But you can use CCS SPI writer code to flash the binary into SPI device.

Also you have to create a binding project which should bind your code in secure mode (encrypting the headers)

Is there any example how to handle this or a description of the workflow which i can find in the TI wiki?

I have never used a CCS SPI writer before.

Best regards
Thomas

Please download and install the OMAPL138 flash utils and import the following project (SPI writer)
C:\ti\OMAP-L138_FlashAndBootUtils_2.40\OMAP-L138\CCS\SPIWriter

You have to unlock the JTAG before you load this code and write the binary into flash.
