AM1808 flash programming

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM1808, OMAP-L138

Hello

I encountered a problem of flashing system images into nand of am1808 evm (Zoom AM1808 EVM Development Kit) under CCS v4 evironment.

I followed up all procedures described here: set up target configuration, build project files, connect target, and run nand writer.

Only a message showed on the console: Starting OMAP-L138 NANDWriter, then hang there.

But, no ask for input arm-nand-ais.binand u-boot.bin to burn both images into nand flash.

All demo programs in the package AM1808 BSL-1.0-Setup run well on the board, so it seems not to be a hardware issue.

So, could you kindly tell me how to solve this issue?

And, can other utility like sfh_OMAP-L138 do the same thing?

Thanks a lot for help.

Yes sfh_OMAP-L138 can do the same thing. Try using that.

Also try halting the program and seeing where the PC is stuck at. Are you sure the UI board containing the NAND is plugged in securely?

Hello Jeff

Could you show me how to use sfh_OMAP-L138 to program the nand flash on the EVM?

Thanks.

Here is a wiki with information on using the serial flasher:
