Part Number: CC3220MODA
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3220MOD, , CC3220SF, UNIFLASH
We have several prototype PCAssemblies with a CC3220MODA but with out connections to the UART. So except for to boards where we cut into the edge of the PCB of the CC3220MOD to get some fine wires on pins 46 and 47, we cannot use the UART method to load code and put the prototypes into Development Mode.
I have read the Production Line Guide (http://www.ti.com/lit/swra568) and understand that the CC3220MODA can be programed by loading the SPI Flash memory with an image. The image is started at location 0 in memory. The Production Line Guide refers to a file as "Programing.bin" or "Programming.hex" and "depending on the SPI programmer."
This leaves me with questions. Are the .BIN files in the Simplelink examples folders for: "Gang" programmers? Is for example the file: "C:\ti\simplelink_cc32xx_sdk_2_20_00_10\examples\rtos\CC3220SF_LAUNCHXL\demos\serial_wifi\freertos\ccs\serial_wifi.bin" such a suitable file?
The UniFlash GUI seams to indicate that it can make .BIN files for gang programing. And if so will it have the rest of the files (boot loaders?) making up a file to be uploaded into the file system?
