CCS: CC2640R2F two different part marking firmware support

Hi Evan,

I want to make use of CC2640R2DK_5XD predefined board file as per the code in board.c file

board.c:

#if defined(CC2640R2DK_CXS) || defined (CC2640R2DK_4XS) \
|| defined (CC2640R2DK_5XD) || defined (CC2640R2DK_7ID)
#include "./cc2640r2em/cc2640r2em_board.c"
#elif defined(CC2640R2_LAUNCHXL)
#include "./cc2640r2lp/cc2640r2lp_board.c"
#elif defined(CC2640R2_RC)
#include "./cc2640r2rc/cc2640r2rc_board.c"
#elif defined(CC26X2R1_LAUNCHXL)
#include "./cc2652r1lp/cc2642r1lp_board.c"
#elif defined(CC13X2R1_LAUNCHXL)
#include "./cc1352r1lp/cc1352r1lp_board.c"
#else // unknown board
#error "***ERROR*** Invalid Board Specified! Please see board.h for options."
#endif

What changes I need to make in above code?

Thanks 

Hi,

Did you read through my link? There is a section titled specifically "Creating Custom Board Files" please read through that and let me know if there is more specific feedback.
dev.ti.com/.../custom-hardware.html

Hi Evan,

I am new to this 'creating custom board files', my TI CC2640R2F part number is 'CC2640R2FRHB' 

Guide from reference link  dev.ti.com/.../custom-hardware.html say to duplicate the CC2640R2_LAUNCHXL with MYBOARD.

1. I have duplicated CC2640R2DK_5XD folder to MYBOARD folder because my package option is 5x5 mm QFN with 15 GPIO pins
2. Then I renamed CC2640R2DK_5XD to MYBOARD in MYBOARD.c and MYBOARD.h
3. Then I replaced preprocessor symbols with MYBOARD 
4. 
5. In board.h, I added a link to my Board.h file

   #elif defined(MYBOARD)
       #include "../../boards/MYBOARD/Board.h"
   6. In board.c, added the highlighted lines shown below:

   #elif defined(MYBOARD)
       #include "../../boards/MYBOARD/Board.h"
       #include "../../boards/MYBOARD/MYBOARD.c"
   
   7. Guide says Explicit references to CC2640R2_LAUNCHXL.h need to be replaced by MYBOARD.h - This point I did not made any changes
   
   Flashing was successful, but was not able to see Output
   
   Please Let me know any thing else I need to do.
   
   Thanks and Regards

Please help on above post. I am stuck.

What is your Output?
Dis you tried to debug your code on a custom board?

Vinayak,
To Tomasz's point, I'm not familiar with what your output is supposed to be. What did it look like on the launchpad? Please expand, with current info, I'm not sure I could be of help. More information is needed.

Hi Tom,

I have CC2640R2F with part number CC2640R2FRGZ (48 GPIO pins) in launchpad, where I am able to successfully flash and see the output using CCS. And in our prototype board were we are using CC2640R2FRHB (32 GPIO pins), where same code we are able to flash but not able to see output. I found this reference link dev.ti.com/.../custom-hardware.html for creating 'Creating custom board file'

It seems I was not successful for creating custom board file

Code used for flashing is SimplePeripheralApp example code. Output in my case - To see bluetooth name in BLE scanner android app, after successful flashing.

Best Regards

Vinayak

Did you tried to debug your custom board?
Compare both boards under debugger.

Hi Tom,

Before proceeding to debugging, I have created the custom board file for part number  'CC2640R2FRHB' 

Please let me know If I have done it wrong:

Hi Tom,
I am getting below error while debugging to 'CC2640R2FRHB'

IcePick_C: Error connecting to the target: (Error -242 @ 0x0) A router subpath could not be accessed. The board configuration file is probably incorrect. (Emulation package 8.0.27.9)

Hi,
what do you use as debugger?

Hi,

I had raised the different ticket for the above issue. So I got to follow below link:

http://software-dl.ti.com/ccs/esd/documents/ccsv7_debugging_jtag_connectivity_issues.html#a-router-subpath-cannot-be-accessed

I am following up above link and going through it. Suspecting the problem and trying to resolve.

I am using XDS debugger which is provided in CCS.

Thanks and Regards

Vinayak

You need a debug probe between your target board and your PC running CCS.
Which debug probe do you use?

Please, give me a link to your new ticket.

Hi Tom,
Can you help me to resolve my issue.
