Hello,

I have an IWR1443BOOST, how can I read TM4C1294NCPDT program (assembled on IWR1443BOOST) and write to new TM4C1294NCPDT chip (for design a new board)?

Can I use "TMDSEMU110-U : XDS110 JTAG Debug Probe" for read TM4C1294NCPDT frimware?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Hello Amin,
You dont need to read the firmware from an existing TM4C1294NCPDT device. It is available as part of the emulation software package, available at the following location : processors.wiki.ti.com/.../XDS_Emulation_Software_Package
You can load this firware to the XDS110 on your board. Note that for a first time , on a new board, you need to load the boot loader (also available in the above package) and then the firmware. Subsequently you can just update the firmware if required.

Regards,
Vivek

Hello Vivek,

Thank you for your help. nowFlash version 3.42 (OFFICIAL) doesn't have the XSD110 emulator as connection option. Can I use Uniflash for upload firmware on the TM4C1294NCPDT at first time? What file should I look for? Where do I find this firmware?

Best regards,
Amin

Hello Vivek,

Can I use "boot_looder.bin" for upload to TM4C1294NCPDT based on Uniflash at first time?
directory of this file:
C:\ti\ccsv6\ccs_base\common\uscif\xds110\boot_looder.bin

Thanks and best regards,

Hello Amin,
You cannot use Uniflash to download the TM4C1294NCPDT bootloader and firmware. When you download the emulation pack from the above mentioned page (processors.wiki.ti.com/.../XDS_Emulation_Software_Package) there is a tool called XDSDFU.exe. You need to use that to download the bootloader and then the firmware for XDS110. Below are the commands to be used from the windows command line:
Xdsdfu.exe -b boot_loader.bin –r
Xdsdfu.exe -f firmware.bin –r

Vivek
