KW36 Erase failure

nsuresh2 — Tue, 06 Aug 2019 05:25:11 GMT

I am working on KW36 micro and I am using J Link Plus debugger to flash the firmware using J Link commander v6.44.

For one of our application, I need to do read/write/erase part of the internal flash. Which caused the device unusable. Tried to do unlock as per the instructions from JLink unlock is successful but fails in erasing the flash.

Please find the below and attached logs from J Link commander:

J-Link>connect

Please specify device/core. <Default>: MKW36Z512XXX4

Type '?' for selection dialog

Please specify the target interface:

J) JTAG (Default)
S) SWD
T) cJTAG

Specify the target interface speed [kHz]. <Default>: 4000 kHz

Hi nsuresh2@visteon.com‌,

You can use J-Flash Lite to erase chip.
