CC1110-CC1111: CC1110,CC-DEBUGGER ,This device has been locked for debugging.To enable debugging and continue with download,the device need to be erased. To erase and continue press Ok,or Cancel to abort

Part Number: CC1110-CC1111
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC-DEBUGGER, CC2431, CC1101

Hello,

I encountered some difficulties while debugging the CC1110 chip using CC-DEBUGGER, as described below,
"This device has been locked for debugging. To enable debugging"
And continue with download, the device needs to be erased
"To erase and continue press Ok, or Cancel to abort"


Here are some configurations of my IAR;


And I have tried some solutions, such as:
1. Replacing the Debugger
2. Replacing the power supply
3. Check the erase flash option in option ->Texas Instruments ->Download in iar and proceed with debugging and downloading,
The subsequent attempts above are: after clicking OK in the locked information window that pops up, you can enter the debugging page, but still cannot debug. After entering the debugging page, it is in a running state and cannot be debugged in a single step. If I click to stop running and then click any debugging operation, it will return to the page again,


Please give me some suggestions so that I can jump the CC1110 chip out of the locked debugging state,
Please let me know
Thanks in advance

0026,

  • Please provide some more info on what HW you are using, and if this is something that happens on many boards or just one single board.

    Also, please try and download the Flash Programmer (NOT the Flash Programmer-2) from here: FLASH-PROGRAMMER Software programming tool | TI.com

    and use that to erase the flash.

  • Thank you, Siri,
    I encountered a new issue when erasing the flash using your method:

    CC-DEBUGGER is connected to the CC1110 chipboard, and the debugger is connected to the locked chipboard. After pressing the reset button of the debugger, Flash Programmer cannot recognize the debugger and the chip, and the recognition window does not display any information. At this time, the debugger status light turns red,


    Note that the debugger is not damaged and performs these operations normally when connected to a normal chipboard,
    After connecting the normal chip board (unlocked), when the debugger status light is still green, I connect the debugger to the locked chip board, click "erase", and then click "erase, program and verify",


    What may be the reason for this, and is it caused by chip damage?

  • hello, Siri, I have encountered a new problem again. One of the CC1110 chipboards, after being connected to the debugger, was recognized by the smartRF Flash programmer as another chip, CC2431. What could be the reason for this? The screenshot is attached below for your reference,

    However, I would appreciate it if you could prioritize providing a solution to the problem described in yesterday's reply. Thank you very much

  • Please answer the questions regarding what HW you are using (are you using our EM, and if so, what kit is it connected to)

    How many boards have you tested and how  many fails.

    If you have two or more identical boards, one not working and the other working, you should swap the CC1110 between a good boards and a bad board.

    This way you will be able to figure out if the problem is related to the boards itself or to the CC1110 chip.

    I have no explanation as to why the board does not work properly and why it shows up as CC2431, but I would assume that either there is something wrong with your boards, or the CC1101 device itself has been damaged.

    Siri

  • The chip used is CC1110, and the debugger is CC-DEBUGGER,
    At present, this situation only occurs on two boards, which means that two chips are locked,
    I replaced the chip of one of the boards, and after replacing the chip, the board can be used normally,

  • I know that you are using CC1110. When I ask about HW I am asking about the board that the CC1110 is on. I this a custom board or a TI board (CC1110EM).

    However, it does not seem to matter, since the problem seems to be that the chip itself (the CC1110) was the problem.

    Siri

  • yes,The board was drawn by ourselves,

    What should I do next? Faced with the new problem I encountered after you gave me advice and I tried: erasing flash but the smartRF flash programmer tool cannot recognize the CC-DEBUGGER debugger and chip. Can you give me some more advice,

    0026,

  • I assume you are still referring to the two chips that does not work? Everything else works as expected?

    It seems to be problems with two of the devices/chips, and if you cannot communicate with the properly with the debugger etc. I do not think there are any ways you could fix them.

    The devices could have been damaged due to ESD or during the soldering process etc. and since you have verified that your boards are OK and that the CC debugger is OK, you need to replace the faulty devices with new ones.

    Siri

  • Yes, it's still those two pieces,
    Okay, I will replace the chip to continue my work,
    Nice to talk to you, thank you very much for your suggestion,
    Wishing you a happy life,
