I am trying to use SmartRF04eb and CC-Deburgger

Hello,

 

I have two SmartRF04eb and CC-Deburgger.

I am trying to use SmartRF04eb and CC-Deburgger.

But, I don't know how to connect these things.

So, I try to search google and I found that reply

http://e2e.ti.com/support/low_power_rf/f/155/t/16016.aspx#61695

When connecting the SmartRF04EB to the debugger, remeber that the recommended way is to connect it via the SoC Debug Plug-in (SOC_DEM) board and not directly via P14.

It is right? 

When connecting the SmartRF04EB to the debugger, Do i need a  SoC Debug Plug-in (SOC_DEM) board?

I think that I try to presentation.  ==>     SmartRF04eb <->SOC_DEM <-> CC-Deburgger.

Please, give me some exactly answer.

thank you.

    Hi,

    It is possible use SmartRF04EB to update the firmware in CC-Debugger without using the SOC_DEM board. Connect CC-Debugger to P14 on SmartRF04EB using a ribbon cable. Follow the instructions in http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/swru197c/swru197c.pdf, page 19, EXACTLY (i.e select SmartRF05)

    Cheers,

    Jonas

    Thank you for you help.

    But, I still have a problem.

    I am woking in accordance with your advice(in http://focus.ti.com/lit/ug/swru197c/swru197c.pdf, page 19).

    But there is no Smart05eb board in EB bootloader tab at my monitor because I have a Smart04eb.

    Finally, the SmartEB borad are connecting cc2530emk at this sequence?

    I think I have some wrong information.

    So, could you please more specific?

    Hi again,

    My understanding is that you want to update the firmware of CC-Debugger, is that correct?

    To use SmartRF04EB to do the firmware update you should follow the procedure on page 19 in swru197c exactly, so you should still choose smartRF05EB, even though you are using SmartRF04EB. You should see both SmartRF04EB and SmartRF05EB in the EB bootloader tab, even without connecting the actual HW. Use the latest version of SmartRF Flash Programmer.

    It is not clear what you are trying to do, Kim. Do you need to reprogram the bootloader on the CC Debugger? Or just update the firmware on the debugger? Or something else?

    Note that you *only* need the external programmer (like the SmartRF04EB or SmartRF05EB or even another CC Debugger) when you want to reprogram the bootloader on a seemingly "dead" CC Debugger. Then you should follow the steps as described in chapter 8.4 of the CC Debugger's User's Guide (www.ti.com/lit/swru197).

    Otherwise, the firmware on the debugger is simply uploaded over USB. The latest version of the SmartRF Flash Programmer has made the process of upgrading the firmware quite easy.

    You also mention the CC2530EM. Are you trying to use the SmartRF04EB together with CC2530EM? That's possible. All you need to do is to make sure you run the latest firmware on the SmartRF04EB (upgrade via USB - you donæt need the CC Debugger for that) and plug the EM board directly into the EM connectors on the 04EB. Note, however, that all of the software examples we have provided for CC2530EM assume you run the code when the EM is connected to a SmartRF05EB.

    Hi.

    Firstly, I'm sorry about that my english is not perfect.

    Anyway,  I want to try deburgging  using SmartRF04eb or cc-deburgger about cc2530emk module.

    I have Z-stack 2.4.0-1.4.0, IAR-ew8051, SmartRF04eb and cc-deburbber.

    How to use are benefits in my situation.

    I want to try just deburgging about the cc2530.

    Please, your reply.

    Thank you.

    I'm going to agree with the reply by M above - it might be possible to use a CC2530EM with a SmartRF04, but it would be a lot of work to even try it out - you would need to merge HAL code for a current CC2530EB target with an older CC2430EB target. ZStack-CC2530 has been tested only with the SmartRF05, not the SmartRF04.

    Hi KwangHyun Kim,

    you can degub CC2530emk using CC Debugger directly.

    you just need to wire correctly the CC Debugger with the CC2530.

    Look at the datasheet of CC2530 and of the degub and wire the correctly.
