Programmed wrong image, is the chip completely dead?

davidsherman — Wed, 13 Feb 2019 13:20:52 GMT

I made an oops and programmed the wrong image into a Kinetis KE18. Pretty sure the flash configuration field was overwritten with something wrong and I cycled power. Now the BDM can't connect to it to reprogram it. Is there any way to recover, or will the chip have to be replaced?

Hi David,

BDM (Background Debug Mode) => SWD/JTAG?

If you have turned on 'mass erase disabled' with 'readout protection' (How (not) to Secure my Microcontroller | MCU on Eclipse), then I'm affraid you have to unsolder it as it is really bricked.

If not and if you have a J-Link, you can try to use the approach described in Unlocking and Erasing FLASH with Segger J-Link | MCU on Eclipse .

If you are using MCUXpresso IDE, it comes with a 'resurrection' tool in the GUI Flash programmer inside the IDE:

I hope this helps,

Erich

Thanks Erich, yes, I have an SWD connection. I have a P&E Multilink for the debugger. Closest thing I have is in the debugger window in MCUXpresso there's a checkbox for "Emergency Kinetis Device Recovery by Full Chip Erase", but it's not responding. I'll see if the newer versions of P&E's flash programmer maybe have an option to try to restore it, but it can't even connect with the version I have.
