Hi, I need to set up a PC to program the flash on a custom 6711 board using a JTAG emulator. FlashBurn appears to require CCS 2.1 I really don't want to give our production department a full version of CCS. Is there anyway to use FlashBurn without CCS or does TI have a standalone utility for programming Flash in circuit with a JTAG ( we are using Spectrum Digital parallel port emulator )? Thanks Steve Thornhill |

Why need you use flashburn? It is limited in many ways. You can write your
own code to program your flash according to the reference of the flash you use.

I was hoping to find a simple a way to allow a technician to program a
blank flash in circuit. I was hoping that there was an existing utility to do this rather than having to write a custom application. Since the flash is socketed we can use a chip burner for this first run but for the next board rev I hope we can eliminate the socket.

Having had some experience in this area in working on multi-DSP systems for Sanmina, I would give you a suggestion, but it may not be as easy an answer as you're looking for. Presumably you have to write some diagnostics or other test code that manufacturing needs to run on your assembled boards? If so, then you can make one of the first steps in the code (after verifying JTAG / HPI / other test system interface) the FLASH download. If you only have the JTAG interface available, and don't want to mess with CCS on the assembly line, then I would suggest talking to TI or Spectrum Digital and see if they have a utility that does just enough to download a program and run it.

Steve We are faced with a similar problem of needing to program flash (during manufacturing) of a C6713 based peripheral. At this stage we were thinking of having to use CCS and either flashburn or a custom app. We'll probably go the custom app route as we want the app (that we download to the DSP) to some h/w testing as well as programming the flash. regards ------------------------ Stephen Turner AudioScience, Inc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Thornhill" <> To: "Tao Wang" <>; <> Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2003 4:26 AM Subject: RE: [c6x] Production programming Flash with jtag > I was hoping to find a simple a way to allow a technician to program a blank flash in circuit.

Depending on your quantity, Viking-InterWorks (subdiv of Sanmina) will assemble *and* test it for you using a functional test system, including EEPROM programming.
