CC3200: SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 unable to identify CC3200STK

Part Number: CC3200
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH,

I have updated the firmware as per the instruction here: <e2e.ti.com/.../1612764>

Still The SmartRF Flash Programmer 2 is unable to identify the CC3200STK Sensor tag connected to the debug dev kit.

  • Hi,

    Reason of your issue is simple. This software is not supported by CC3200. You need to use Uniflash v3.4.

    Also with CC3200 you can't use JTAG (like a XDS110) to update code in serial flash. It is mandatory use serial interface with Uniflash. JTAG is available only for development purpose. Because CC3200STK is not officially released product, public documentation is not available yet.

  • Hi Jan, Thanks for the answer

    Uniflash 3.4 is still unable to connect the SesorTag+ the dev kit
    This are the error I get when I try to flash the device:
    <
    Error connecting to the target:
    (Error -2131 @ 0x0)
    Unable to access device register. Reset the device, and retry the operation. If error persists, confirm configuration, power-cycle the board, and/or try more reliable JTAG settings (e.g. lower TCLK).
    (Emulation package 6.0.83.1)

  • Hi Jay,

    For programming CC3200 using Uniflash software you can't use JTAG, as I written at previous post. You need to use serial interface /CC3x Serial(UART) Interface/ and program CC3200 using bootloader. Bootloader is executed when you trigger SOP02 pin and restart CC3200.

    Because CC3200STK is not officially released product, my suggestion is use CC3200 LaunchPad for development purpose.

    By the way. Where do you download firmware for CC3200STK? Is this official firmware for CC3200 SensorTag?

  • Hi Jan,

    -I have updated the firmware as mentioned in this post <e2e.ti.com/.../1612764>

    -I guess the above mentioned method is for upgrading the firmware on the dev kit and not the sensor tag

    - Is there a way I  can flash/program/read data from CC3200 STK SensorTag through SimpleLink SensorTag Debugger DevPack?

  • Hi,

    CC3200STK use CC3200 chip inside. Any procedures for another types of SensorTag are not relevant for CC3200 SensorTag. This completely different hardware. You can't use firmware from another SensorTags into CC3200STK.

    I don't know how looks SensorTag Debugger DevPack. But definitely is not possible upload firmware into CC3200 using JTAG. It is not important if CC3200 is embedded in SensorTag or any other hardware. But it looks that SensorTag Debugger DevPack also contains serial port interface and lines for control SOP0 and SOP2. From this reason I suppose that using SensorTag Debugger DevPack can be possible upload firmware using Uniflash software into CC3200STK.

    My suggestion is use CC3200 LaunchPad or wait for official release CC3200STK.
