S32K148 Secured?

Hi together

We have prototype board, where we use a S32K148.

I tried the flash partitioning example and made my own out of this (see attachment).

This worked fined a few times, always with changing the code and flash it onto the MCU.

After then I disconnected the supply to check if the written value written remain in the Flash orrectly.

After trying to flash a new programm onto the MCU, the following message showed up:

It doesn't matter if I choose YES or NO, I can no longer connect to MCU.

Even if I try to connect by J-Link directly, I'm not able to connect to the MCC and this Message always shows up.

Because of this problem I checked the community. I found another question, but there is another MCU involved (TWR-K65F180M board unintentionally secured).

The Reset pin shows a saw tooth signal. We had the problem of the saw tooth signal once, but with flashing by J-Link this could be solved. But not so this time.

This Situation brings up some questions for me:

How to unsecure the MCU?

Where are the setting in S32DS to secure or ensecure a MCU after flashing (used for production)?

Thanky for your help.

Regards

Mario

Hello Mario,

Please refer to AN12130 Production Flash Programming Best Practices for S32K1xx MCUs

4.1 Flash configuration field

4.3 Secured part

5 Common problems

In S32DS, the flash configuration filed is initialized in the Startup_S32K148.S file at 0x400 - 0x410 (S32K1xx_flash.ld)

and loaded from the Flash configuration field to the FSEC[SEC] register out of reset.

Once the MCU is secure, the debugger can still access the MDM_AP Status and Control registers.

S32K1xx RM rev12, Section 58.6 MDM-AP status and control registers.

AN12120,

3.1.1 SWD connection steps

3.2.1.1 SWD mass erase

You can follow the connection steps in J-link commander using the commands from this thread:

https://community.nxp.com/message/1166947?commentID=1166947#comment-1166947 

And use the "unlock Kinetis" command to trigger the SWD mass erase operation while the MCU is held in reset (connect PTA5 reset_b to VSS).

Regards,

Daniel

Hi Daniel

Thanks for your answer and all the information.

The unlock was successfull.

Now I will investigate in the first point about the Flash configuration field.
Because I never intended to write in these fields. I have checked the address 0x400 after my program did the write and read the on the flash, but these registers did not changed.

Regards

Mario
