  • Hello,

    Did the keyfob work ok with the CC debugger? If that worked, then check the

    1 - USB dongle is powered by USB port as it does not get power from CC debugger,

    2 - The red strip from ribbon connector is away from USB connection.

    Br,

  • Hi Greg:

        I have made an CC2540 USB-Dongle board following the documents provided by TI. But when I connect the board to the power, I found that there is no signal at  the pin-1 and pin-3 of crystal oscillator. I used the Epson Toyocom 32MHz, 12pF, 10PPM crystal oscillator, and the bypass capacitor is 12pF.

       Could you give some advice to get me out of these troubles?

       Thanks.

  • Hi ShihaoLiu,

    Do you have any code on the chip starting the crystal oscillator? It is not started by default. See the userguide chapter 4: http://www.ti.com/litv/pdf/swru191b

    Best regards

  • Hi Fredrik:

        Thanks for your help.

        There's another problem when I downloarded my program to the CC2540 chip. I connected the pin P2_1, P2_2 and Rst to the JTAG interface, but when I used the IAR IDE to downloard the program, it  said that "Faild to identify the device.".  I don't know if I should connect other pins to the JTAG.

        Thanks a lot.

    FYI, I flashed the Dongle with the given "cc2540_ble1.0_master_usb_dongle.hex" file

    Please suggest me how to overcome this issue.
