Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3350
Tool/software:
Hi WiFi team,
Project Context
- MCU: H5 ARM Cortex-M33
- Wi-Fi Module: CC3301, on a module: BDE-BW3301AP1
- Network Stack: NetX
- Operating System: ThreadX
- File System: FileX
Note: goal is to use a BDE module with CC3350.
We are developing a firmware for a product using the CC3301 Wi-Fi module. The first hardware prototype (HW-V1) used an early version of the CC3301 silicon, along with the R3 driver. This setup was nearly stable with only minor issues.
After moving to a second hardware prototype (HW-V2) with a more recent version of the CC3301 silicon, multiple issues have been encountered depending on the driver version used:
HW-V2 with R3 Driver (legacy)
- The same firmware used successfully on HW-V1 fails during binary upload on HW-V2.
- The upload process stalls midway, preventing proper initialization of the CC3301.
HW-V2 with R5 Driver
- Binary upload and boot sequence succeed.
- The CC3301 operates initially but becomes unstable, crashing after some time.
HW-V2 with R7 Driver (latest, current)
- Binary upload and boot sequence succeed.
- However, the module crashes immediately after a Wi-Fi scan command is issued.
Summary of Current Status
- HW-V1 (early silicon, R3): Nearly stable operation.
- HW-V2 (updated silicon):
- R3 driver: Upload fails.
- R5 driver: Upload works, but system crashes after some runtime.
- R7 driver: Upload works, but system crashes almost immediately (after scan).
Can you please provide some guidance on how to proceede?
Thank you,
Marinus
