Ticket Name: TDA2EVM5777: How to burn BIOS(sbl and appimage) into qspi ?

Query Text:
Part Number: TDA2EVM5777 Hi, I want to boot bios from qspi, I reference the manual VisionSDK_UserGuide_TDA2xx.pdf - 3.7Load using QSPI.But I don't have JTAG,I cannot use ccs to download the binary. I heard there are also ways using the USB boot mode to load and execute an image from DDR3 to then run a secondary boot loader that can flash QSPI-NOR or eMMC flash. So could you indicate which documents mention this? Regards

Hi, You can use Mflash to flash via UART. Please see PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00\ti_components\drivers\pdk_01_10_03_07\packages\ti\boot\sbl_auto\docs\AppNote_mflash.pdf Regards, Rishabh

Hi,Rishabh I follow the guide, I compile the sbl_mflash_tda2px-evm and copy AppImage_BE and MLO into mflash directory. And I enabled UART3 by two simple registers modification on the evm. I use below command try to download the AppImage_BE and MLO. sudo ./mflash.out -M sbl_mflash_tda2px-evm -P 0 -F AppImage_BE 0x80000 -F MLO 0x00 -C But it crash in Opening port for sbl_mflash. Here's the complete download log lyp@lyp-desktop:~/hd2/tda2/sdk_3.07/ti_components/drivers/pdk_01_10_03_07/packages/ti/boot/sbl_auto/tools/mflash$ sudo ./mflash.out -M sbl_mflash_tda2px-evm -P 0 -F AppImage_BE 0x80000 -F MLO 0x00 -C

 I think there are something wrong with my operation....Do you have some idea? Regards

Hi, Your original question mentions TDA2xx whereas as per your reply you are trying to use TDA2Px. Can you confirm what is the exact SoC you are using. Regards, Rishabh

Rishabh, It's TDA2PX. Regards

Hi, Can you confirm if you have followed the step "Put UART Boot Mode, make fresh UART connection & restart". Regards, Rishabh

Hi Rishabh, Yes,I sure I make this. I have to give up this way. I try to boot up in Linux and flash image into /dev/mtd0 and it success.But I meet another problem. I will ask a new question in new thread. Thanks
