Operating the DLP LightCrafter 6500 and 9000

Choose the driver found in the CDM WHQL Certified zip folder and allow driver installation to complete.
Install a jumper at J9 on the DLP LightCrafter 6500 EVM or J10 on the DLP LightCrafter 9000 EVM.
Connect the JTAG signals at J10 on the DLP LightCrafter 6500 EVM or J11 on the DLP LightCrafter 9000
EVM to the UM232H module as shown in
. Finally, connect the UM232H to the PC with USB
cable.
Start the DLPC900 Flash Programmer program and select the BoardFile.brd and the bootloader.bin
included the install folder. Select USB as communication method from the Settings menu.
Power-up the EVM board and click the
Detect Chain
tool button. The tool should detect the DLPC900 in
JTAG chain. If two DLPC900 are shown, then click on one of the DLPC900 to select it. On the EVM you
will notice the
Red
/
Green
LEDs light up to confirm which DLPC900 is currently selected.
Click the
Flash Info
button and confirm the correct flash part is detected by the tool. Using the
Flash Erase
button select the first sector(s) (to cover first 128KB) and erase these sector(s).
Once sector erase is complete, set the
Start Address
(HEX) to 0x00000000 and set the
Size
(HEX) to
0x20000. Then click the
Program Flash
button, and then wait until write is complete. Do the same
Erase
and
Flash
for the second DLPC900 if needed. Finally remove the UM232H JTAG and remove jumper at
J9 or J10, and then cycle the board power to the EVM. Plug in a USB cable between the EVM and the PC
and allow the PC to detect the EVM USB connection.
3.11 Altera FPGA Programming
Download the Altera Utility Tools and follow the instructions in the FPGA_Using the Serial
FlashLoader_an370.pdf. To program the FPGA on the EVM use J5 and use the FPGA binary included in
the DLPC900REFSW bundle.
