Can't erase Flash sector on KL25Z,but ERROR_OK'

[diegocolombo]

Hi,i'm trying to erase a Flash sector on FRDM-KL25Z Freedom board using IntFlahs Bean.From the data sheet:

27.1.1.1 Program Flash Memory Features  • Sector size of 1 Kbyte

I've prepared 3 sectors in Flash for store my code data,and i'have limited the code area to 64KB,then i've initialized some bytes in the 3 sectors

unsigned char __attribute__((section (".ParametersSection1"))) ParametersFlash1[512]={'S','e','c','1'};
unsigned char __attribute__((section (".ParametersSection2"))) ParametersFlash2[512]={'S','e','c','2'};
unsigned char __attribute__((section (".ParametersSection3"))) ParametersFlash3[512]={'S','e','c','3'};

i can verify that after programming the characters do appear in the memory modules

then i inserted the IntFlash Bean,naming it MyFlash,and in a point  of my code i call

MyFlash_DisableEvent();
temp=MyFlash_EraseSector(0x18000);

I expect to see the sector  0x18000 - 0x183FF erased and full of  0xFF 0xFF...but it remains unchanged .

Probably it is not so simple and something is missing or i am completely wrong.

All the example i found are using a bean cold "Flash" instead of "IntFlash"

Can i have your help?

Thanks

Hi,

Could you please provide us a simple project reproducing the problem ?

Please write also more details on what version of CodeWarrior or Procesor Expert Driver suite are you using.

Best regards

Thanks Petr

I apologize for being so late in replying

I should set my account settings so to be warned by email when i receive a reply to a post.

Codewarrior is 10.5,i dont know how to retrieve the PE driver infos

The problem disappeared suddenly,i think it was related to the change of SDA in the demo board.

When i had the problem a J-Link emulator was loaded,then i changed it with Open SDA and everything worked fine.

Maybe some setting in the programming task??

Thanks again

Diego

May be it could be caused because when you have loaded the J-link emulator you did not set connection with J-link instead of defualt OpenSDA.

This is all I can say about it, if you could share more information regard your process to load J-link I will be glad to check in order to determine which could be the problem.

Have a nice day,
Perla Moncada
