AWR1843AOPEVM: Switches configuration to use AWR1843AOPEVM + MMWICBOOST in debug mode

Part Number: AWR1843AOPEVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1843BOOST, , MMWAVEICBOOST

Hi,

I have purchased AWR184aopevm with MMWICBOOST. following the document for Medium range radar named "MediumRangeRadar_DeveloperGuide.pdf" I successfully load .xe674 file to dsp but when I want to load .xer4f executable to the MSS I see the error:

Cortex_R4_0: Trouble Writing Memory Block at 0x0 on Page 0 of Length 0x3c: (Error -1065 @ 0x3C) Unable to access device memory. Verify that the memory address is in valid memory. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK). (Emulation package 9.9.0.00040)
Cortex_R4_0: File Loader: Verification failed: Target failed to write 0x00000000
Cortex_R4_0: GEL: File: C:\ti\mrr_18xx_mss\Debug\mrr_18xx_mss.xer4f: Load failed.

I think that the problem maybe related to the switch configuration of the modules. The demo document declared the configurations for the AWR1843BOOST module but I have AWR1843AOPEVM + MMWICBOOST. 

  • Hi Ali,

    I would like you to confirm that you are using the switch settings as mentioned in sections 2.5 and 2.8 of the following document.

    xWR1843AOPEVM User’s Guide (ti.com)

    The same also explains how to use the AWR1843AOPEVM with MMWAVEICBOOST board.

    Secondly, to be able to load the debug binaries on CCS for the respective cores, you will have to flash the CCS debug binary provided as part of the mmwave SDK (Refer to the user guide). Please make sure you have done the same.

    Regards,
