Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650, CC2640R2F, BLE-STACK
I am new to TI platform and have only a couple of days of experience using a launchpad. I have a CC2650 Launchpad Rev1.3 where I uploaded the Simple BLE Peripheral Code using SmartRF Flash Programmer, by uploading the stack and then the app hex code. It broadcasted fine and it showed up on NRFConnect and TI SimpleLink Starter App. Going through some examples and tutorials, I have been able to control the onboard LEDs using buttons and also by writing to SimpleProfile_Char3 by sending a command from the app, I could toggle the LED.
Now, we have a custom board designed using 4mm*4mm CC2650F128 RSM chipset, where I uploaded the same code using 2 pin JTAG from the Launchpad's onboard XDS110 debugger. For some reason, the custom board is not broadcasting any Bluetooth signal when I check the NRFConnect or Simplelink App.
When I revert back to the stock SImple BLE Peripheral Code, the chipset broadcasts a Bluetooth signal similar to the Launchpad, but I cannot connect to the board and so I cannot read or write anything. It just shows connection failed.
From troubleshooting through previous issues and forum responses, I presume it is because of the packaging issue, where LP uses RGZ and custom board uses RSM chipset. I followed the steps to make all the DIO beyond DIO_9 as unassigned and even tried creating MYBOARD by duplicating the CC2650_LAUNCHXL board, but nothing worked. https://software-dl.ti.com/simplelink/esd/simplelink_cc2640r2_sdk/2.40.00.32/exports/docs/ble5stack/ble_user_guide/html/ble-stack-5.x/custom-hardware.html
Sorry for the trouble, as I am a newbie and am having a hard time understanding what needs to be done. Could anyone provide me some easy go-to steps for porting my project from launchpad (CC2650F128 RGZ) to CC2650F128RSM. Many of the links are for different CC2640R2 chipset and I still can't figure out how to make the custom board work.
Note: The same custom board was previously flashed by another person in my lab and that used to work, but I do not have access to those code, so I am kind of stuck! Any help is appreciated!! Thank you!
