IWR1642BOOST: Unable to Programming Serial Data Flash Over UART

user6092104

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH, , IWR1642

Hello, TI team,

I have a test in TI IWR1642BOOST, I want to download the demo package BIN file(xwr16xx_mmw_demo.bin) via UART directory in UniFlash(5.0.0) without usb(connect with XDS110),

(1) Modify the IWR1642BOOST Hardware, remove the R128 and 129, connect the R169 and R166 with 0 Omh resistance，as below,

(2) Select the Flashing Mode(101),

(3) Used a FTDI to USB adapter to connect PC and iwr1642 UART(RX: Ball N4 / TX: Ball N5 ) through J6(Pin 5 and Pin 7).

(4) Used a 5V/2A power adapter to supply Power, then connect [FTDI to USB adapter] to PC. Open uniflash tool to download BIN file.

But it could not download, the error code is below, could you take some suggestions?

Hi,

Not all debug probes and programmers are supported by Uniflash.

Please check with the uniflash team by posting on the Tools forum to comfirm if the USB adapter is compatible.

Hi, Charles O,

Thank you for your reply.

Please help to confirm the method I used to test UART Programming Seria Flash without connecting by XDS110 is OK in theory?

Thank You.

Eric

Hi,

The changes made to route the UART to the BP/LP connector seems correct.
