We must develop a series of applications for this device.
In the las month, we have been familiarizing with the PGA_900 GUI and the USB2ANY Software and we read a lot about the PGA900 peripherals and functional blocks. We learned how to manipulate the DAC registers in order to obtain an output in the VOUT pin. We did this using the "Digital Interface" tool but we want to do this using the C Code Program that comes with the firmware.
We already have modified the Build options in Code Composer Studio and we generated the .hex file. After many tries, we could not make it upload the program in the microcontroller and make it run.
We know that there is the OTP memory which is non-volatile and there is a RAM memory which may overlap the OTP memory enabling the REMAP bit. We enabled this bit, and loaded the program using the RAM Dev uploader but the program does not run. We checked all the jumpers positions including JP4 that connects the necessary voltage to the OTP memory.
I would like to ask you if you could help us with this. We would like to upload a .hex file that we generated with CCS5 and run it in the PGA900EVM. I am pretty sure that it must be a simple solution with some register or setting in the PGA900 General Software. We already studied a lot about the PGA900 but we are not able to program it using the .hex file.
The documentation that TI has does not explain very well this process.
Thank you,
