Hi,
I am using IMXRT1050-EVKB kit. I have problems with onboard LinkServer debugger. Sometimes it stop working and I am not abble to upload firmware anymore. In this situation, only thing that helps me is to reconfigure "BOOT_MODE" pins to serial downloader mode and then do "Mass erase" procedure using "GUI Flash Tool". Then reconfigure "BOOT_MODE" back to HyperFlash. I need to use all of GPIO pins in my future design. I also need to use "BOOT_MODE" pins as normal GPIO pins and set booting from HyperFlash by fuses. So, this behavior can be a real problem for me in the future.
What it reason for this behavior? Is there alternative method to unbrick not responding processor without using serial downloader?
I decide to try J-LINK EDU SWD debugger instead of onboard LinkServer because maybe this can solve problem describled above. But I have troubles to make J-LINK probe fully working. I am using tools:
MCUXpresso IDE v10.2.1 [Build 795] [2018-07-25]
SDK version 2.4.2 package for EVKB-IMXRT1050 board
I read somewhere that in this version of MCUExpresso should be default support of J-LINK and everythink should work without configuring.
- I am not able to do a restart of processor using "Restart" button in IDE. There is Debugger console output:
tbreak main
Temporary breakpoint 3 at 0x600030e2: file ../source/csi_rgb565.c, line 350.
monitor reset
continue
Continuing.
- I am not able to do erase of Flash memory using "Erase Flash" button in IDE. There is Console output:
Erasing device (MCIMXRT1052)...
J-Link: Flash download: Only internal flash banks will be erased.
To enable erasing of other flash banks like QSPI or CFI, it needs to be enabled via "exec EnableEraseAllFlashBanks"
I do not understand where exactly I should add command "exec EnableEraseAllFlashBanks". Is there some script file?
