serial programming

Started by chirag jagadish May 9, 2007
hi,
i want to program the chip F2812 through serial programming.
can anyone please help me with programming the DSP 2812 through serial communication ?
can you also guide me to the software best suited for this purpose ?
please help.
thank you all
bye
hi Beat Arnet,
First of all thanks a lot for replying. I have run into some problems with c2000prog and the details are as follows.

I downloaded c2000prog from the code skin web site.
I connected the serial communication line com1 to the ezdsp port8, pin3,4 through the MAX232 chip circuit(which i had).
I changed the jumper setting on ezdsp board for sci boot mode as
jp1 - 2-3
jp7 - 2-3
jp8 - 2-3
jp9 - 1-2
jp11 -1-2
jp12 - 1-2
i use ccs version 3.1.0
In the program build options i chose the output file as ---> o- .\Debug\try.hex
and CCS created a hex file of intel hex type called "try.hex"
in c2000prog i chose the option c28xx 30MHz.
i chose the try.hex file for programming through c2000prog
it said that i should reset the board in SCI boot mode, which i did

later the c2000prog says
"Pinging target..."
and it does not progress any further from here.

is there any mistake that i am doing ?

Please advice. Please help.

Thanks again for your reply.

You will need to read the bootloader documentation and learn how to put the chip in SCI boot mode. You will also need to add an RS-232 (such as MAX232) to your hardware.

Cheers,

Hi Chirag,

we are using SD FDlash Serial programming utility for
flahing the code to TMS320F2806 processor. The same
utility can be used for programming TMS320F2812 also.
The download of the flash programming utility can be
found at this site

http://emulators.spectrumdigital.com/utilities/sdflash/

You just need to follow the steps given in the
document to flash the code into the board. You can do
a frequency test using the Serial programming utility
before trying to erase/program the flash. This check
ensures that all the clock settings are correct. The
other major thing that you need to do is to make the
bootload settings. We use a 3 pin jumper using which
we change the boot state of pins GPIO18 & GPIO34(for
TMS320F2806) for booting serially and then change the
staate of the pins to boot from flash once the flash
is programmed.

If you need more information please let me know.

Thanks,
Vishal.

Chirag,
Does the ezDSP board have an RS232 driver? If you send me a copy of the
schematics, I can verify that the jumper settings are correct.
Cheers,
Beat
