Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM5728

hi,

     I am new to this TI processor and CCS. I am first time using this setup. i am unable to boot the board with provided SD card. I have gone through the process of creating prebuild image with TI Rtos SDK. on different SD Card but unable to get result on teraterm with baud rate of 115200 terminal dosent show any thing. 

also when i run the ccs 7 and on selecting XDS100V2 USB Emulation and after clicking verify button, it display internal error occured. 

I am using 5V 2 amp power supply.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Nikhil

    Hi,

    I think you need a more powerful external supply. See section 3.1 from www.ti.com/.../sprui64a.pdf for details.

    thanks Biser for reply,
    I have checked the current drawn by board its around 1.25 A. also when i plugged sd card with "TI RTOS prebuild image" the ethernet port led starts blinking .

    as my supply current still mot reach the 2A its rating. i think there may be other issue. still i will check with increased current limit.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Please check with a larger power supply. There are very large current surges at boot time.

    hi Biser,
    As per your suggestion i have connected 5volt 10A power supply. still no luck. on development board industrial LED2(blue) industrial LED3(glows) but no output on tera term.....
    ccs display following error when we select XDS100V2 USB Emulation and goes for verification "An internal error occurred while creating the board config text."

    thanks & Regards,

    OK, we can rule out the power supply then. What software are you trying to boot?

    hi,
    1) Is there any other driver for XDS100V2 USB Emulation which has to be downloaded for ccs 7 ?
    2) "C:\ti\processor_sdk_rtos_am57xx_3_02_00_05\prebuilt-sdcards\idkAM572x\sd_card_img" does it contain uboot or the provided image is bootable image with uboot?
    3) how do i check that board contains RBL ?
    4) how to get sbl prompt on teraterm ?
    5) what is the process of correctly flashing the image ?

    can you help me to understand on above points?

    Hi,

    From your description, there are two issues need to be resolved:
    1) JTAG connection
    2) UART

    For the CCS JTAG, we have a wiki page for AM572x GP EVM at processors.wiki.ti.com/.../AM572x_GP_EVM_Hardware_Setup

    The steps for AM572x IDK EVM is similar: using XDS100V2 USB on-board connection and select" IDK_AM572X" as the device. This works with CCS 6.1.3 we recommended. We also use this in CCS/JTAG configuration, I don't see any problem. Please just create this .ccxml file before creating any CCS project. Is possible that your CCS installation is corrupted and need to re-install?

    For SD card booting, there are RTOS and Linux pre-built images. It looks that you followed the Wiki page and reflashed SD card, still no output from UART.

    You need to run some standalone UART tests to understand if this is just UART broken:
    1) there is pdk_am57xx_1_0_5\packages\ti\board\diag you can create the diagnostic applications and copy into a SD card to test UART, check processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_DIAG

    2) there are UART driver test applications (need CCS/JTAG, you need to fix this first) under processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_UART

    hi Eric,

    I have followed the process from wiki " processors.wiki.ti.com/.../AM572x_GP_EVM_Hardware_Setup" . 

    I am unable to understand what I am doing wrong in the process.

    hi Eric,

                 Thanks for providing your ccs target configuration file, on your target configuration file I have changed path from "c:\ti_6_1_3" to "c:\ti" and then make this file as active and then build the project.

    I have got following result.

    After Clicking on connect to Target Button.

    Hi,

    Good to know you can connect to EVM now from JTAG! The way to create RTOS Diag, please check processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_RTOS_DIAG

    In short:
    1) Run pdksetupenv to configure your build env
    2) run "gmake idkAM572x_sd" to build
    3) copy files into SD card
    4) insert SD card into EVM and power on, you should see printout on UART

    If you doesn't see anything, please connect CCS/JTAG with all the GEL files REMOVED to A15 core to see where the program counter is.

    Hi Eric,
    I have followed the step suggested by you and successfully created the SD card, there was no print out on Teraterm with 115200 baudrate.
    also can you guide me on removing the GEL Files as you said in "If you doesn't see anything, please connect CCS/JTAG with all the GEL files REMOVED to A15 core to see where the program counter is."
    This question might look silly, but I am New to ccs environment. tell me how can I achieve connecting debugger with all GEL files removed?

    Hi,

    Keep you original CCXML file which has GELs associated to connect to the EVM. Please create a new ccxml use the same xds200 JTAG, but in device select "AM5728", not those IDK or GPEVM, so this ccxml will not have any GELs.

    When you copied the diagnostic files and boot from SD card, as you see nothing from UART, please use this new ccxml to connect to the A15 core (there is no GEL to intialize the SOC again, this already done by MLO). If you see the A15 PC is at 0x3_xxxx address, it means the boot didn't work. If you see PC is at 0x4xxx_xxxx, that is boot happens, may be the UART breaks?

    Another way is to use the UART test examples with your original ccxml to initialize the SOC, and to see if you see anything on UART.

    Hi Eric,

          Thanks for explanation. i have created a new ccxml with device selection as "AM5728" and after  that connection was tested which was ok. But when I try to connect to A15_0 core i got following error:

    How to remove the above error ?

    Hi,

    when i try to connect the A15_0 without GEL and without TI RTOS SD Card, PC at 0x3_xxxx looks right.

    As we are debugging why there is nothing on UART, can you "i try to connect the A15_0 without GEL and WITH TI RTOS SD Card", where is the PC?

    Hi Eric,

                 you pointed out" As we are debugging why there is nothing on UART" exactly the same problem that i am facing right now. when i try to connect the A15_0 without GEL and with TI RTOS SD Card loaded, i got following error when i try to connect to core A15_0 and there is no data on PC.

    hi Eric,
    As i have lost much of time on starting the board, i haven't started coding on real application, i request you, Is it possible for you to come online at your convenience time, so that problem can be solved quickly. I can also arrange the access to "teamviewer" with am572x IDK.

    Sorry, I can't do on-line support. Do you have a local FAE to work with? As JTAG is working, UART nothing printed. Either you use the our diagnostic code (create the SD card) to see if anything printed on UART, or we have standalone UART test project, you can build and use JTAG/CCS to run, to see if UART working.

    Hi Eric,

               Thanks for reply, I have tried with diagnostic code (create the SD card) and no success with uart, also JTAG/CCS doesn't enter the processor when  diagnostic sd card is loaded. can you provide the example of 

    standalone UART test project (with all files) so that we will be on same platform and this could help in better understanding whats going on with board (AM572x IDK).

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,

    Please check then PDK Example and "Test Project Creation" to create your UART CCS project. Then load into CCS, build and run, to see if you see anything from UART.

    For your reference, I just did the same and attached the .out file here https://e2e.ti.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/791/UART_5F00_BasicExample_5F00_idkAM572x_5F00_armExampleProject.out, you can directly load and run on A15 core. You should see something in UART.

    Regards, Eric

    Hi Eric, 

                 I have attached the steps carried out, along with console. please go through it. I have directly loaded your .out file but got error. It is showing error on executing Board_Init(board_cfg); step. Nothing on Uart

    test_out.rar

    can you provide more insight on whats going during board init. and what causing uart not functional also I have run the basic hello world example on A15_core successfully console shows the result.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,

    I compared my CCS console output to yours, it is exact the same except the JTAG/DAP failure at the end, which happened when you run the program. The screenshots also look OK. I then loaded the out file from the *.zip (is that your own or mine?), it worked to print info on UART without any issue.

    There are many driver examples in PDK 1.0.5, did you try any others in addition to this UART one? Did they crash as well? All the examples have such routine Board_init() at the beginning, although may have the different flag passing into it. If UART example crashed, I expect that other driver examples will crash as well. The simply one "hello world" just print something to CCS console without PINMUX|UART setting passed into the board_init().

    I don't know what was wrong to the EVM you have. If you have to debug, you can try different combinations of:

    boardCfg = BOARD_INIT_PINMUX_CONFIG |
    BOARD_INIT_UART_STDIO;

    To see which flag caused the DAP/JTAG failure. Then step into the code for that flag to see which portion failed \ti\board\src\idkAM572x\idkAM572x.c:

    if (cfg & BOARD_INIT_PINMUX_CONFIG)
    ret = Board_pinmuxConfig();

    if (cfg & BOARD_INIT_UART_STDIO)
    ret = Board_uartStdioInit();

    Do you have another board to try or this is the only one?

    Regards, Eric

    Hi Eric,

                  " I then loaded the out file from the *.zip (is that your own or mine?)"

    you are absolutely right it was yours .out file which i have loaded in to Am572x IDK board

    ."did you try any others in addition to this UART one?"

    No. But i will try and let you know the result.

    any more points to be taken care while trying the example?

    Thanks & Regards,

    hi Eric,
    When I load the .out file provided by you " UART_BasicExample_idkAM572x_armExampleProject.out " .I got error at Board_init(boardCfg); "Can't find a source file at "src/idkAM572x/idkAM572x.c" . i have checked that location " idkAM572x.c " file was present.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Eric,
    Thanks for time and support. finally i have applied for replacement of board.

    Thanks & Regards,
