Breakpoint warning with 805EVM new info - Bruno Tremblay - Jan 23 19:10:00 2003




I made some tests and I still have the breakpoint warning message targeting
the external RAM but not when targeting the flash of the DSP. Can someone
help me with that warning message?

Thanks,

Bruno

Bruno,

Did you do anything to modify your EVM at all? This message can
occur if, for example, you had changed the jumper configuration on
JG7 which alters the program memory map from all external memory
(Mode 3) to Internal Memory (flash and RAM - Mode 0A) and you had
more than one breakpoint set in the program memory that used to
External RAM but is now Flash (since you only have 1 hardware
breakpoint by default).

If you did not modify your hardware at all, it is funny to me that
you are seeing the error on the External RAM target but not on the
Flash target.....usually it would be the other way around since
usually the Flash target has less breakpoint/debug capabilities than
the External RAM mode. However, there is usually a perfectly good
explanation for this error message, but sometimes it's just hard to
see. Basically, CodeWarrior at some point was able to set some
breakpoints that you had set, but can no longer keep them set and is
warning you. There are many reasons why this could happen and I
couldn't be sure of why it's happening without more details or a
sample project to look at.

If the number of breakpoints you have set is not staggering, you
might try examining where these breakpoints are set via the
Breakpoint window....then try clearing them all, and then try
resetting them to see if CodeWarrior will let you. Just a suggestion
without any knowing anything else about your situation.....

Regards,
John

Bruno,

This sounds like the message when Codewarrior tries to set a BP, but
cannot. Please confirm that the BP is actually being set in RAM
and not FLASH. I would do this as follows:

-Launch the debugger, and stop it at random
- Find the address you wish to set the BP at. (Go into mixed mode
in the debugger to find the address)
-Go to the memory window, make sure you select "P memory" view.
-Try to modify this value manually.

If you cannot modify it, then you either are setup for interflash
(check your OMR, it should be s in the least signficant bits) or
your external sRAM is not connected (this could be a jumper setting
on the 805EVM).

if you can modify it, the debugger should be able to set a BP at
that location as well. the debugger sets BP's by inseting a "debug"
instruction at the location you requested.

Hi,

Thanks again to John, Bill, and Robert for there help.

I just made some test with another EVM and it works perfectly. So I think
the problem is something on the board. Before change all the IC, does
someone have a suggestion. Is it the SRAM or the DSP? Bye

Bruno

Have you checked that the SRAM enable jumper is present at jumper JG8. Thanks.

There is a jumper on JG8. But your question made me do some more tests. I took that jumper of and the result was the same (breakpoint warning). Next, on the working EVM, I took the jumper of the I got the breakpoint warning. Now, I'm more convince that the RAM is dead.
 
Thanks for having me check,
 
Bruno
