CC2640R2F: Bootloader always responds NACK after sending COMMAND_DOWNLOAD

Part Number: CC2640R2F

Hi,

We are implementing a Linux programming tool on the custom board.

We are able to enter bootloader mode with BL_CONFIG register.

BL_CONFIG:

BOOTLOADER_ENABLE: 0xC5

BL_LEVEL: 0x0

BL_PIN_NUMBER: 0x7

BL_ENABLE: 0xC5

And commands, BAUD_RATE_DETECT(0x55, 0x55), CMD_GET_STATUS(0x23), and CMD_BANK_ERASE(0x2C), can run successfully, which means we can receive ACK and data correctly

But somehow, we always receives a NACK(0x00, 0x33) after sending CMD_DOWNLOAD(0x21).

Our procedure is BAUD_RATE_DETECT -> CMD_BANK_ERASE -> CMD_DOWNLOAD -> CMD_SEND_DATA

These are the log of DOWNLOAD command bytes we sent, we want to program all 128KB(0x20000) memory from address 0x00000000.

cmd[0] = 0x0B

cmd[1] = 0x2E

cmd[2] = 0x21

cmd[3] = 0x00

cmd[4] = 0x00

cmd[5] = 0x00

cmd[6] = 0x00

cmd[7] = 0x00

cmd[8] = 0x02

cmd[9] = 0x00

cmd[10] = 0x00

We thought the command should be correct, but we have no idea why bootloader always returns NACK.

We also tried to reduce program size to 252 bytes in CMD_DOWNLOAD, but still no luck.

Please help to provide any suggestion.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Ivan
