Part Number: IWR6843

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi Team,

I have a custom board (ESP32 with mmWave sensor), I want to connect this board to CCS using TTL to UART converter. but In Code Compose Studio connection dropdown, which connection I want to select. if I select the UART connection,  board or device selection dropdown IWR6848 chip is not available. the custom board is not available in the connection menu, and how to select port number. Please guide me. 

Regards,

Srikanth

    Hello,

    Are you looking for a CCS debug connection with the target? If so, you will need a JTAG probe. The "UARTConnection" can be used for CCS <-> Target UART communication like with using UARTMon, but not full CCS debug functionality.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the update.

    Yes, I have a JTAG probe, which is connected to JATG pins of ESP32 MCU. after connections done, take the USB cable from the JTAG probe and connected to my PC, and opened CCS, created a new target configuration file. after created, new pop-up windows opened, which is the General Setup window. now in connection dropdown which one I want to select and board or device dropdown, which device I want to select. for your reference I have attached a screenshot with highlighted with mark.

    Note: I am using a custom board (ESP32 with IWR6843ISK mmWave sensor).

    Regards,

    CCS supports JTAG debug for TI targets. It doesn't look like you will be able to use CCS to do JTAG debug with the ESP32
