BOOSTXL-CC2650MA: Need help programming the CC2650MODA chip in the booster pack

Part Number: BOOSTXL-CC2650MA
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650MODA, CC2650, UNIFLASH

Hi,

I need some help programming a hex file into the CC2650MODA chip. I have a MSP-EXP432P401R launchpad connected to a BOOSTXL-CC2650MA module booster pack.

I am trying to follow the "SimpleLink MSP432 SDK Bluetooth Plugin / SNP Fundamentals" c:/ti/simplelink_academy_msp432sdk_1_15_02_00/modules/sdk_bluetooth_plugin/sdk_bluetooth_plugin.html.

I am getting an error (see attached) when I try to program a hex file into the CC2650 module using SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 version 1.7.5 software.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Jeffrey

  • Try to do a mass erase and download again.
  • Hi,

    I tried to do the CC26xx/CC13xx Forced Mass Erase. I am still unsuccessful. I am now getting this error message:

    >Initiate access to target: XDS-M4321005.

    >Create XBAL object failed: Target connect failed

    >Failed to create device object.

    Attached is a picture of my board connection.

    I have also tried to use UniFlash version 4.2.2.1692. I am getting this error message in UniFlash.

    I have already tried on 3 different BOOSTXL-CC2650MA and MSP-EXP432P401R board sets. I am getting the same results.

    Will you be able to try this on your end?

    Thanks,

    Jeffrey

  • When I test this, I mount GND, 5V, and 3V3 jumpers between XDS110 and MSP432 on LaunchPad and I also mount BOOSTXL-CC2650MA to MSP432 LanunchPad to program it. You can try the same thing to see if it works.

  • Thanks! It works now. The following documents need to be updated:
    C:/ti/simplelink_sdk_ble_plugin_1_30_01_42/docs/users_guide_simplelink_sdk_plugin.html
    C:/ti/simplelink_academy_msp432sdk_1_15_02_00/modules/sdk_bluetooth_plugin/sdk_bluetooth_plugin.html
