Cannot Find DFU-UTIL

[ianbenton]

I have just spent a whole day getting my first LPC5502 project working.

Installed SDK - wouldn't work on MCUXPRESSO 11.1.1   --  Upgraded to 11.4.1 - then the peripheral views wouldn't work - reinstalled 11.1.1, which fixed the peripheral view, but the SDK didn't work and couldn't be deleted.

The Windows version of 11.4.1 will not communicate with the LPC5502, giving a "No SWD devices" error,  the Linux version doesn't communicate with anything giving a "Internal: unable to find DFU-UTIL" error.

What's missing?

11.4.1 on the old computer (Linux) will communicate with the 5502, but I cannot see any of the peripherals.

Here is the error message:

Hello ianbenton,

There is no Linux on my hand, I just check the version of Windows, it can work well.

So you can try to use the MCUxpresso ide on  Windows, if have issue, show your working steps,

i can help you check, thanks.

Hello  ianbenton,

At Windows , Please download and install MCUXpresso IDE v11.4.1:

https://www.nxp.com/design/software/development-software/mcuxpresso-software-and-tools-/mcuxpresso-i... 

SDK v2.10.1:

https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/en/select 

If still have any issue, please take a video or screenshot show your debug stpes.

Downloading 11.4.1 seems to be what caused the problems. I could see the peripherals properly before then.

The peripheral viewing bug is mentioned elsewhere, but NXP have not suggested a fix.

I could send you a screenshot of the DFU-UTIL error, but I don't see how a screenshot showing exactly the same text that I quoted is going to help.

Hello,

You can add attachment at here:

Also could you please point me where mentioned "The peripheral viewing bug is mentioned elsewhere, but NXP have not suggested a fix.".

I haven't lpc5502 board, so I can't check on my side, could you please show the pictures on your side, thanks.
