Unable to start debug session on MPC5748G board. download stops at 98%

veeresh_ambe — Mon, 04 Feb 2019 06:44:27 GMT

Hello,

I am using the MPC5748G board and I am facing an issue while debugging the code. I have compiled the linflex example provided on the website and earlier it was running fine. Currentlywhile starting a debug session the progress bar stops at 98% and nothing happens further.

There is no reset escalation on the board. I have monitored the reset line on the board. After power on it goes low and then goes and stays high.

I have gone through similar problems posted by other users and the only way by which I can recover the board is using a 400USD debug probe which i don't have.

Please help. Any guidance would be really helpful as we have very strict customer deadlines.

The log while downloading the elf file is as below.

Hi,

I tried reproduce your issue, but my board is working okay. You already found this thread - DEVKIT MPC5748G S32DS download problem,blocking at Verifying object file CRC-16 to device ranges - you can try to erase flash. PKGPPCNEXUS free version supports OpenSDA:

Connect to target, select programming algorithm:

And erase module:

Hope it helps.

Hi Jiri,

I am unable to flash the MPC5748G with my own application. The linflex test application gets downloaded and is working fine.

I am observing the following error.

Well I cannot share the source code of the project since we have a NDA agreement with the customer. However I was able to download and test the same elf file earlier. So I dont think the problem is with the source code.

If it is of any help, I have provided some info about the elf file. If there is any other info you require please let me know. TIA

BTW i just noticed that the .pcp file used to erase the MPC5748G uses the same blocks layout as the MPC5748C. Could this be the reason? The start address and length of the NVM flash is the same but the blocks are arranged in a different way in the MPC5748G compared to the C variant.

Hi,

I'm able reproduce your issue with linflex example. It stops working for unknown reason. But have no solution yet. Thanks for report. I'll be back when I find out how to solve it.

Hi,

quick update - I tested three MPC5748G EVBs - and the only one which is not working is EVB with OpenSDA app firmware v1.08:

Second EVB has v1.09 and last one v1.10. Unfortunately - the official latest firmware is v1.08.

Can you please check you FW version? Switch to EVB to bootloader mode - remove OpenSDA USB cable -> press and hold SW3 switch (that one bellow RESET switch) reconnect OpenSDA cable and release SW3 switch. You can see new removable drive named BOOTLOADER on your PC Machine. There is SDA_INFO.HTM file. Double click on int brings up PE Micro page with version info (like on screenshot above).

Hello ,I had the same problem , we just got a MPC5748G dev kit, and I followed this thread, updates the firm ware ,

HOWTO: Update OpenSDA Firmware on EVB

and updated the debug app from reading the PDF Updating the OpenSDA Firmware.pdf and now I see this issue ,regardless of which core setting I choose. Please see the attached screen shots. Any help will be appreciated.

After downloading and installing progppc, the runtime prompts you to need the installation code. Where can I get the installation code
