how to flash a KL26 with no crystal?

robotjosh — Wed, 17 Feb 2016 17:17:18 GMT

I have used many kinetis chips but this is the first design that has no crystal. It is intended to use the internal oscillator. It is not possible to flash any of these units without the crystal. They continuously put themselves in reset resulting in a series of pulses on the reset pin. This results in the orange light on the jlink. When I try to flash the jlink blinks red. The jlink can connect but gives an error when any memory is attempted to be read or written. What could be the problem? Is it possible to use the KL26 with only the internal oscillator?

Whether there is a crystal or not in the circuit doesn't affect the way that programming takes place; an erased chip will always be runing from the internal oscillator and the external one will not be enabled.

I would try reducing the JLink clock speed setting to see whether it makes a difference.

Also try using different programming tools - I have experienced cases where (for example) IAR and JLink wouldn't work together in some circumstances but Codewarrior and JLink would. I could then get IAR + JLink operating again by commanding a chip erase with CW + JLink, then a chip erase with IAR + JLink and after all was fine again (until loading certain code, when it would again stop operating).

Somethings are difficult to explain but I can't imagine the crystal being there or not to be a reason for a programming issue.

Regards

Mark

Hi Josh,

As Mark mentioned above, there's no difference to program the KL26 between integrate with the external crystal and use the internal oscillator.

I'd like to suggest that you'd better check the debug interface by referring to the attachment.

And I was wondering if you can tell which IDE you use and and share the screenshot of the error message.
Have a great day,

I tried adding a pullup to SWD_DIO as in the diagram, same results. IAR isn't an option, we are using kinetis design studio 3.

Hi Josh,

I'd like to suggest the following steps to unsecure the chip, then try again.

1. Open the Jlink commander;

2. Input the commander:unclok the kinetis;

Have a great day,

Here is the jlink commander log of trying to erase after the "unlock Kinetis" command. It stops going into a reset loop at this point but still cannot read or write memory. If I try to debug with kds at this point it will go back to the reset loop and do the same as before.
