SPI flash memory MT25QL128ABA1EW7-0SIT works well  for FX3 SPI booting.  When I used it for CX3 SPI booting, I am not able to let CX3 boot from SPI flash memory. PMODE pins configuration has been confirmed. Using control center utility tool, firmware image file can be written to MT25QL128ABA1EW7-0SIT successfully.   But can't boot from it. it is still enumerated as boot loader device, which means it failed SPI booting.  May I know the difference between CX3 and FX3 in terms of SPI booting? Thank you.

I am using Application Kit TC3X7 V2.0 TFT board

I have configured BMHD but  the board all the time boots from Internal flash ignoring BMHD settings

If i want to use Alternate Boot Mode or BMI  to boot , which all changes i need to do on the board?

Hi,

I am using CY8C6245LQI-S3D42 and I used the DFU examples to boot the system and created the application to run on AM4 core and everything is working well. 

I wait for 5 sec in DFU to check if there is any updates or just move with the Application code.

I find that sometimes the device stops booting once in a blue moon. Now If I flash again just the boot loader, everything is fine , I need not have to write the Application, it moves from DFU in 5 sec to application.

I believe, there is some how the flash/DFU is getting corrupted.  I want to protect this scenario. Can some one share how do I protect my DFU so that it never erases . Any example's will be appreciable, I am using USB CDC transport in DFU.

Regards,

Madhav

Hello, World!

I am trying to install ModusToolbox and am getting the error message 

Error: Failed to Login: "Network Error occurred": 'ContentNotFoundError'

Steps to reproduce:  

1) Download and install the developer center launcher

2) Launch ModuxToolbox Setup

At this point the software gives the error message

At this point, it doesn't matter if I click "Login" or click on "ModusToolbox Tools Package". Login doesn't even ask me for a username. I get the same error message and "Next >" never becomes enabled.  

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello.

I'm planning to work with the CYUSB3KIT-003.

Reading and following the Kit User Guide,  I am able to complete section 2.1 FX3 SDK Installation using the file ezusbfx3sdk_1.3.5_Windows_x32-x64.

Then next step, 2.4 Superspeed explorer kit installation, is the one not being able to complete. I am using the file SuperSpeedExplorerKitSetup_RevSS obtained from the  CYUSB3KIT-003 design support section.

The installation stops and an error shows up. After clicking "OK " it rolls-back the installation of the items completed.

I would like to get directions to solve this. Its not clear what item is the one that supposedly found a newer version already installed. Anyways, this is right after installing the FX3 SDK, then probably this packet has something newer than the otehr installation is not expecting.

*I tried using the other file available: SuperSpeedExplorerSetupOnlyPackage_RevSS; this one is able to get installed, but then, following the user guide the next step is to use the update manager but this one can not be found, it seems this different package for the Superspeed explorer kit  doesn't include that and other things.

Thank you,

Alan.

Hello,

I am trying to flash littlefs filesystem on the qspi external serial flash memory in XMC7100 V1.1. As I see library mtb-littlefs is not included in the XMC7100 kit but i have included the mtb-littlefs from PSoc6 Kit to my project and in makefile included target as XMC7100 (my board).

BOARD: XMC7100 EVK Lite v1.1

Memory: External QSPI flash memory

These are the errors when I try to builld the file:

When I comment the line:

    /** Continuous transfer merge timeout.
     * After this period the memory device is deselected. A later transfer, even from a
     * continuous address, starts with the overhead phases (command, address, mode, dummy cycles).
     * This configuration parameter is available for CAT1B devices. */
    //.mergeTimeout = CY_SMIF_MERGE_TIMEOUT_1_CYCLE
#endif /* CY_IP_MXSMIF_VERSION */

I get failed to creat spi device block:

Could someone help me with ".mergeTimeout = CY_SMIF_MERGE_TIMEOUT_1_CYCLE" error?

When using the mtb-littlefs through the mtb-shared, how do I enable the cy_hal, freertos and thread in make file?
I tried to add the necessary comments on my application makefile but it is not enabling the corresponding if condition in the files in mtb-shared folder/mtb-littlefs!

best regard,

Hello everyone! Is it possible to directly measure the current running through a DC motor using the BTN9970LV shield? I tried finding the answer in the data sheet and user manual but I was unable to. Thanks for your responses!

I am trying to load the cyfxuvcinmem_bulk example on my SuperSpeed explorer kit however once I upload the firmware to RAM or I2C, the device does not enumerate as a UVC camera on my laptop. When I last tried a year or so ago, it did work. Is there any known modifications or issues that would prevent the device from enumerating? I am using the cyfxuvcinmem_bulk example taken straight from `<FX3 SDK Install>\firmware\uvc_examples\cyfxuvcinmem_bulk` with no modifications. If I load the LED blink example, the board works as expected.
