I am struggling with programming MK64FX512VLQ12 using FRDM KL25Z with USBDM on OpenSDA. USBDM can not connect to target chip.

Signals on CWDIO and SWDCLK are present. Even the Reset pull down works, but MK64 outpun on reset pin is a sawtooth like signal. I know that it's related with watchdog constantly resetting the MCU because it's empty.

I read a lot of troubleshooting on freescale community and I'm stuck. It is even possible with USBDM?

Maby I shall switch to other device in order to sucesfully download code to flash memory?

Hi Tymoteusz,

The P&E opensda on the FRDM-KL25 didn't support to program the K64, I already check it in our FRDM-KL25 and FRDM-K64 board.

But you can try to change the FRDM-KL25 firmware to JLINK firmware, now follow these steps:

1. Change FRDM-KL25 firmware to JLINK

1) download jlink driver

SEGGER - The Embedded Experts - Download

2) download my attachment and unzip it.

You will get JLink_OpenSDA_2015-10-13.sda

3)power off your board, press reset button, and hold on it, then plug the board to your PC, your board will be a Disk named as: BOOTLOADDER

4) Send JLink_OpenSDA_2015-10-13.sda to your BOOTLOADER

and wait the sending finished

5) unplug and plug the USB cable again.

2, Cut the wire between the two pin in FRDM-KL25 J11,

3, connect J6(swd interface) to your K64 board, and configure the download interface as JLINK.

You can try it, I can download the code to my FRDM-K64 board with the JLINK firmware in FRDM-KL25, but I am not sure, whether the JLINK firmware can support the none NXP board's kinetis chip, because I don't have none official board.

After you try it, please let me know the result.

If your K64 board's SWD interface is correct, and still can't download, I suggest you buy a Segger JLINK to debug your K64.

Wish it helps you!

Have a great day,
Jingjing

Dear Jingjing Zhou,

I will try doing as you suggest and as soon as I get any result I will reply if it was a success or failure.

Currently I managed to borrow Segger J-Link from friend, and all is fine. J-Link wiped the processor in order to debug it.

Hi Tymoteusz,

Thank you!

Waiting for your test result!

If you have the JLINK, I suggest you use the Segger Jlink as the debugger .

Wish it helps you!

Have a great day,
Jingjing
