help regarding sdflash with tms320f2809

Started by sjer...@yahoo.com April 1, 2008
hi,
I built a pcb for my project. It uses tms320f2809,
I followed steps as per SDFlash Serial RS232 Flash Programming Reference Guide
when i started to program flash first it connected to device but them flash erase failed. following messages appeared

MSG: User must now get target to bootload state
MSG: Interface version 1
MSG: Connecting to target
MSG: Connected to target
ERR: Erase flash failed.

after this i increased time out to 1000 from default 500. and waited around a
45 seconds but controller started to get heated little bit so i set power off. is it sate to wait for some more time?

my max232 level converter works on 5v so i'm using a 3.3v zener diode at receiver pin of 2809.

please help....
