Using the FlashBurn Utility
A-4
8) In the Step 1 area of the FlashBurn DSK dialog box, connect to the
target by choosing the "EVM-DM6437 (cpu_0)" Connection option
and clicking the
Connect button. The dialog box shows the resulting
connection status.
9) In the Step 2 area, click the Browse (...) button next to the "FBTC
Program File" field. Locate and select the provided FlashBurn Target
Component (FBTC) file, FBTCEVMDM6437.out, which is located in
the flashburn_files directory of the DVSDK installation.
10) Click the "Download FBTC" button. The dialog box shows the
resulting connection status.
11) You may optionally click Erase Flash (in the Step 3 area of the dialog)
to perform a global erase of the NOR flash to prepare for writing.
12) Prepare the application to be flashed to the EVM. The file should be
in hexadecimal format (Motorola S-record or ASCII hex). You can
convert a CCStudio COFF file (a .out file) to a proper hex format
using the provided hexAIS tool, which is located in the
<
DM6437_install_dir >\flashburn_files\hexAIS directory. For example
the "
hexAIS a.out
" command produces the file a.hex, which can be
flashed to the NOR flash of the DM643x. This procedure uses the
included file, DM643x.ini, to provide information on basic initialization
of the system PLLs, DDR interface, and EMIFA interface. (The
hexAIS tool is a .NET application and requires that the Microsoft
.NET Framework v2.0 or higher to be installed. See the readme.txt
file for more details.)
13) In the Step 3 area, browse for the File to burn to the NOR flash. The
file should be in hexadecimal format as described previously. Leave
all other settings at their defaults.
